Hi, I'm Brittany

I just wanted to introduce myself.
I'm Brittany and I'm from Sydney in Australia.
I didn't really know where else to go for help or support.

Welcome Brittnay.

Glad you found us. How's your sobriety coming along? I see your coming up on 6 months - good for you!

Are you working a program? AA?

It was going great, nearly 6 months then just before Christmas I drank.
But I'm trying to get on track.

I have been to AA before, but I didn't feel like I fit in as I'm so young.
I just felt silly being there.
I have no support with this, no friends or family members dealing with the same thing, which is why I turned to this forum really..

While it does feel odd being so young in groups like that you can take comfort in the fact what you have to overcome, while a large task, is made easier by the fact you're young and you have a much smaller time period of habit to overcome.

When I realize I'm only as young as some peoples addictions themselves I consider myself very thankful I only have to go through what I have to go through now. The easiest time to stop is now and it can only get more difficult for me.
