Want to welcome those seeking sobriety. I found my way to Sober Recovery in September 2010 after 35 years of daily drinking with the last 10 years of it knowing I should quit and not being able to. But in 2010 I had a moment of clarity (after a night of yet-again uncontrollable drinking) and said that was it.
I committed to sobriety, made the changes I needed to support a sober lifestyle, and learned how to cope with life without the crutch of alcohol. Wasn't easy, but haven't had a drink since Sept 10th of 2010. I live and love a sober life.
Life has its challenges; recovery has allowed me to face them. My alcohol and drug free life has been a blessing. I wish each of you the same.
