and my life is unmanageable. I heard a church women say that God will not support you in being anything other than yourself.

Dear God,

Please support me in my sobriety. Please walk with me as I admit my alcoholism and begin to work on myself. I am willing now.

Dear SR,

Please promise to be here when I need support and I will continue to be here in support as well

Day 1 December 30th, 2010.

God Bless You All and Happy New Year!

Thanks all.

Dee I'm heading to an AA meeting tomorrow. I got my BB and 12 tradition/steps books out. I made plans with sober AA friends for NYE and my old sponsor. I am throwing myself in, plan on 90 in 90. So excited...something definitely clicked today.

Welcome back!:ghug3 I'm glad you're starting over. I've been sober a year now and living sober really rocks!

Lemme give you a pat on the back and a vote of support for having a plan of action. Recover your life, maybe become a beacon for all who need to find a path out of where you have been.

But most importantly, recover your life. Welcome back.

Anna

I'm glad you're working on your recovery, and SR will definitely be here as a support.

Welcome back. I hope AA works for you this time.

GREAT post! AA removed the alcohol obession for me, but I'm not special.

It can work for you too.

I'm guessing God's with you every step of the way. Just look at what his son went through for us... Who would go through that for man, then turn on them?

I close out my nights by logging onto a web site that prays the rosary. It's not for everyone, but it makes me feel incredible.

Support is everywhere here. That's a promise.

Thanks all! Meeting today was great. It was a women's meeting, small, in a beautiful church not too far from my house. I met some lovely ladies with time, got a number, and we went over the 12th step. That honestly was exactly what I needed to hear today. It is sooo weird, but every time I go to a meeting I always feel like "That was exactly what I needed to hear." It doesn't fail. The part that stuck out to me was about emotional sobriety and bringing the 12 steps to all our affairs. I have so much to learn but I am extremely grateful that I feel like the little AA fire that burns inside me is lit again

I am moving out of my moms on feb 1st, to rent a room close to my university. She is an active alcoholic and while I love her dearly it will be such a healthy step for me to live separately from her/her addiction.

I didn't speak in the meeting today, because I am still shy/nervous/fearful/guilty, but I was also hopeful/positive/in the moment.

Thanks again u guys.
