Hi everyone.. i found this website through one of my counselors at a sheriffs corrections center im attending.. i recently just got outta of jail and i had to detox in there from perks and i finally realized that i need to get my act together and stay clean for myself and my family. i was locked up from 1.27.10 - 3.10.10 and ive been clean ever since.. i could go on and on about everything that has happened to me but im just really lookin for someone to talk to about the whole recovery thing.. i wanna kno more about meetings and if there are like meetings online. thanks for your help!

Welcome to SR Tamdeezy, check out both NA & AA meetings in your area, I know a lot of recovering addicts in my area attend both. I find it so helpful to have real life clean & sober friends to do things with and share things about recovery as well as posting here.
The biggest plus to AA/NA is that you can do real things out in the real world with people who are recovering. I find a great deal of hope when I go with friends who are also in recovery doing normal things just like any one else.
We learn in AA/NA how to function outside of meetings by attending meetings and doing things with other people in recovery.

Welcome to the family, tamdeezy. It's fantastic that you're not a slave to that poison any more - you're free. It's a great idea to talk about your experiences & how you're feeling now - I loved it that I was no longer alone when I found this place. Everyone understood, no one judged.
Congratulations on your new life - I hope it's a wonderful one.
