We've got a Newcomer!

Hey everyone, I'm new to Sober Recovery! Im really excited to find a place online to vent and chat with people...Right now I'm involved in an outpatient treatment for Alcohol Abuse and I've been sober since 11/24/07. Its been quite the transition and its had its ups and downs...The hardest part for me right now is finding things to do, that I enjoy, finding new hobbies and making new friends...Thanks Again and I look forward to talking to all of you!

I know how you feel. I just keep trying new things. I figure eventually I'll find something that I really enjoy.
