Thanks so much for the thread, Scott!
My name is Lynn and I'm a 40 year old recovering alcoholic and addict. I have 19 months clean and sober this go 'round. I have been divorced for a long time and have two daughters who are 15 and 12. I haven't seen my eldest in 3 years due to my alcoholism and long-term depression, but I am hoping that changes one day. My 12 year old and I are very close and live together with two dogs and two cats. I am in a relatively new relationship with a normie who is wonderful and who I have fallen in love with. I love to read and to go for long walks. I love spending time alone, or to spend time with a friend over coffee, talking about life and good books we have read.
SR has been a big part of my life for some time now, and I have made some lasting friendships here. I go to AA also, and building connections with other recovering people has saved my life - literally.
