I have been clean for 2 years, a member of SR for 1-1/2 of those (but lurked for almost a year). I did go to AA, and I still use a lot of what I learned there.
I do have a couple of family members who are very supportive, but they're not addicts. I also have made some friends here, that I e-mail on a daily basis, and can call at any time. We talk about anything and everything, so if any of us are struggling, it's very easy to reach out to each other.
I'm glad that I went to meetings, because they gave me a good foundation to start with, but I understand they're not for everyone.
I make my recovery a priority and I've found people who support me...a few are f2f, but most are at the other end of my computer
Hugs and prayers!
