Welcome! I have 61 days sober today. This is the longest stretch of days I've had since I was 15. The thing I did different this time was AA. I find it to be wonderful. I know there are several here who have gotten into recovery without it, but for me, AA seems to be working.

My problem has always been how to "stay quit". I would make resolutions that I'm never going to drink, but could never find a way to not drink and be happy. AA and this site have given me that.

I think what has helped me is I have made a lot of friends in AA and have a great sponsor. I think it's very important to find a meeting that you're comfortable in.

I'm a little "gunshy" to call me a success story this soon, but I will say AA has allowed me to get the most sober time of my life and I really like going. Hope that helps!
