I was a chronic relapse (not while on here though). But I was on various other sites such as SMART. I keep coming on here and see the compassion, support, ESH that everyone shares and it's absolutely amazing. As a AA'er , the primary purpose is to carry the message to the alcoholic who still suffers. If it weren't for those that have come before me, I'd be doomed. I'm grateful for this site and it's helped me tremendously.
