Please allow me to introduce myself....

Hi My name is Kevin and I am an addict in recovery. I just wanted to introduce myself. I haven’t used drugs for nearly 23 months and have been at SR and working a program in NA for the same time.

Mostly I have been in the Newcomers, but have decided that I have gone through enough changes to start to look around. So I have focused on the F&F’s forums for a few reasons and am happy to be here.

My story is in the Recovery Stories forum under; "Kevin's Story" I think!

Kevin

Kevin, Welcome to our forum. Congratulations on your clean time. Stories like yours are the reasons that we continue to have hope for our addicted loved ones. They say most addicts are codies too. Feel free to share with us and we will share with you. Mom of an addict daughter age 20. Marle

Thanks for the welcome and hi (((((Done))))).

I wrote that story about 11 months ago, so it has grown some and I have remembered for more detail, I may update it some time or maybe just talk about it in F&F

I love having hope, so if I brought a little in with me thats great

Kevin

Kevin,

I'm Linda and my 25 yo son is the addict in my life, although I did grow up with alcoholism in my family. A lot of'em.
Glad your here, and just wanted to invite you to stick around and get to know us all.
Congratulations on your sobriety.

A new sr pal,
