Hey y'all!

So this is my first time to post on this site and I'm excited to be a part soberrecovery.com! I've stumbled upon this site many times and am floored by all the caring, supportive folks on this site. I have been addicted to painkillers off and on for 4 years. This past year I have been using almost every day. I'm not sure where to actually post my story. Maybe here?? I don't know. Haha

You definitely can post your story here, on Newcomers thread) We are here to listen.

There's also a thread for substance abuse on this forum, just explore around.

Hey yourself! Welcome to SR! It is so supportive and understanding here. This was the perfect place to start. I read a lot here and and also find posting in the "class" of the month thread I quit extremely useful. There are many ways to overcome addiction. Read around and figure out what works best for you! And ask questions if you have any.

Happy to meet you rwa! I'm glad you're here and wanting to get clean. You can do it!

I drank all my life - it was killing me and stealing my spirit. When I came to SR I couldn't believe all the support and encouragement I found. Not being alone was key. I hope you'll feel the same. Keep posting and reading other's stories - you can have a whole new beginning.
