Hi. My name is Leslie. I am nearly through my 13th day of sobriety. I start a recovery program through my church tomorrow night. I am definitely going to need support, as I am struggling with alcohol cravings right now. My detox was rough, and it helped me stay clean, while the memory was fresh. Now though, I'm having trouble keeping my mind right, and I'm trying not to crawl out of my skin. Thank you for the website. It has been very helpful to me tonight.

Hi Leslie - sorry your detox was so rough but you have made it 13 days which is great. Good luck with the recovery program. Let us know how it is. I am not in any face to face program just on here so far. Love to hear how other methods work for people

Picture yourself looking through a kalidescope. When you twist it your eye sees all those pretty patterns and images meshing. My mind was just like that for 30 days at least. I could not put a coherent sentence together for 3 weeks. Don't worry, all that will leave. As crazy as it sounds, right now the answer to all your problems can be summed up in two words " Don't Drink!"
