A phone number is not a bad idea at all. New life, new control over who I want contacting me. I didn't go the new phone route this time but I will say that one of the absolute BEST decisions I made in my first week was to delete my Facebook account. And I mean, I FULLY deleted it. Found a program that went through and deleted all my old posts and pictures and comments. So there's no way I can get drunk later and decide to log back in and everything is just like I left it. It's been one of the most freeing decisions I've made so far in recovery and all that time I used to waste on there has been diverted to SR. Much much healthier for me than keeping up with all my old drinking buddies on FB.
