((((((Bloomfield)))))))) You have landed yourself in just the right place. There are so many people here who are in just the same boat as you. Myself, I have not had a drink in over six years, but I started smoking pot again a few years ago and it had spun completely out of control. Quit again this weekend. 3 days now! It isn't easy, but it is possible.
As others have already said, finding some kind of support is pretty important, especially early in sobriety. I chose AA mainly because it is easily accessible and there were tons of meetings around my hometown. I haven't been to many meetings lately, though, and I kind of miss it!
Hope you will stick around. Post a lot, if you can, and let others get to know you. Read a lot, too. You will find a lot of experience, strength, and hope here. Besides, it keeps you busy because there is so much going on here all the time and it takes a while to keep up!!
