Hello.
Hello. My name is Matthew. Almost 6 months sober now and just beginning to get a glimpse of things getting better. Not wanting to shout it to loudly but the willingness to recover is just beginning to show some green shoots.
Came in on the back of some serious binge drinking which was nothing more than a glorfied version of self-harming.
Registered on here because I sense I need a place to sound off when I cannot get to a meeting or phone somebody. Realising that the simple combination of not picking up that first drink, just for today, and getting to a meeting does pay off and want to express some gratitude for the whole KISS notion which works so well for somebody as stupid as I am !

Welcome to the family, Cormat!
I drank all my life, and when I found SR I finally stopped feeling alone. It was comforting to have a place to vent and just be myself. No one judged me - everyone encouraged me and shared their wisdom. I didn't have that with my friends or family - no one really got what I was going through.
Keep posting - we care about you and want to help.
