Congrats! I'm 31, female and I have been sober almost 6 months now and I've been trying to quit for years...this is the first time it's worked.
i too have done things differently this time.
I see a therapist weekly.
I am on an anti-depressant that is seemingly working wonders.
I did 90 meetings in 90 days and got a sponsor I meet with, which to me, is KEY. Keeps you accountable. It's so hard to ask someone to be yours, but it's soo worth it - trust me.
I think you're on the right path! I am also working the steps. DOn't give up on AA - I wanted to but wanted to quit more...
