Aldy - The road to a new me

Hi , my name is Alistair.

I've been an alcoholic since I was a teenager and it has finally brought me to my knees. I've lost my friends, my job and my life through this illness.


I'm scheduled to enter rehab next week in the hope that I can finally rid myself of this illness. As you can imagine I'm in a very fragile state of mind so I would really appreciate It if I could have support to help me through this.

Thankyou very much for reading this, I hope to get to know you all very well.

Aldy

Hi Aldy welcome to SR

I'm only on day 2 of my sobriety but this site is the only reason I've made it to 48 hours. You've come to the right place.

I wish you all the best with your rehab and your journey to recovery.

I love when I'm feeling a bit down and going through withdrawal symptoms and someone writes a little inspirational quote like this. Love that Trachemys.

to SR! A great place for support and useful information about addictions. I've stayed sober over three years now with the help of this site and my counselor. My life is better than ever and it's because I no longer drink.
