newbie is always tough!

Hi everyone,
I have just joined and feel a bit nervous. I really hope this site gives me some advice and support from others who actually understand what it feels like to go through the recovery process. Anyone fancy a wee chat, im here for ya x

This is a great place to be. It's helpful, supportive and non-judgemental. It's helped no end during these first few difficult days of sobriety, and my many failures in the past.
Welcome...this is the first step to a better life.

Welcome shivvy! We're so glad to have you. I was a little shy at first, but I got comfortable right away. This place has saved my life - and I couldn't do without it. Hope you will find encouragement and hope as you read and post.

Welcome! I'm Marisa, and I'm new here as well. But I already love this place, and I'm sure after a few posts you'll be less nervous. I know what it's like, I get nervous too. But everyone here is so sweet and welcoming.

Welcome shivvy

good to have you with us - I know you'll like it

I recommend you check out the Class of December thread (also in this forum)
lots of newcomers to the board, and to sobriety, there
