Hello I'm trying to make today my 1st day sober

Hello, I have done my fair share of drugs and such...I'm trying to quit now.. I came across this message board and I hope I can get support from other people with similar problems as mine and support others as well.
Cheers

ChrisCross, your post made me want to "Jump, Jump!" I realized over 10 months ago that I could no longer have a relationship with alcohol if I wanted to live my life to the fullest. I found this forum that very night, and I've been here and alcohol-free ever since.

Of course, much more is involved in my recovery than SoberRecovery.com. But it's a wonderful site with tons of great people who have so much experience and support to share with you. Thanks for joining us, and I'm glad you're here!

Welcome Chris (and nice name btw). My name is Chris too.

Everyone that recovers has a day 1.

Do something, anything, everything different.

That's a good start.

welcome Chris
and congratulations on making the decision reclaim your life
Day 1 is an excellent start
and by taking one day at a time those days will soon add up.

Though no-one can go back and make a new start,
anyone can start from now and make a new ending.
