There's a new Titan on the board

Sleepie.

Beating the beast of addiction into submission.

Reaching out to help others while fighting her own battles.

You're a hero, sleepie.

Sleepie made that quote back in April it was and I saved it. I think she just says so much in that simple statement. and I always appreciate how she just puts it out there.

Aawww YOU GUYS!

Thank you so much Trach this made my day.
You have all held me up and helped me get this far my SR family, just yesterday I was thinking how it really feels like a family to me here.

How can I ever disappoint you now?

I don't know what to say! I am glad some of you get things out of my posts which really can be a lot of unhappiness expressed but guess what guys? It's working, with your help.

Thank you so much

I admire your strength Sleepie. Yeah there may be a some negativity in your posts BUT YOU'RE STILL SOBER AND TAPERING no matter how hard it is. That's inspiring.

Keep being a superhero

You have been helping so many others while dealing with a really rough situation, and you've done it with courage and honesty.

What's not to admire dearest sleepie?

Thanks Hawkeye!
It's just the beginning after I quit the benzos entirely in less than 2 weeks.

How time flies when inebriated, and here the last 2 months have seemed so long.

Sleepie, if your results are anything like mine, you will feel a huge weight lifted once off the benzos.

I am no longer on the hamster wheel that is an endless chase to stay properly mellow. Benzos, like alcohol create their own need.

I really think you've got this... Excellent work!
