the longest stretch I have ever had was doing it here
I'm greatful for this place. I have tried AA and CR. Over and over. I had a very long stretch of peaceful and productive sobriety when I was here. I went back into a situation that was unavoidable and very depressing. I had no choice. I stayed sober for a little while but then I grabbed the tail of the snake back. I use alcohol, very simply, to kill pain. I do not enjoy it. I do not look forward to it. It has been a tool for me to check out for a very long, long time. Yet, it only makes my situation worse. When I do not drink, I can think, I'm productive, positive, and can rise above my circumstances.
Coming back here to try again for that wonderful period of time when I had peaceful sobriety.
I see the site web front cover has changed. Has it been taken over by the recovery industry vultures? Nobody can get sober unless they want to. What a leech industry. Bleh.
I will pray everyone who touches this site has a restful night. Please pray for me too, I want to become the person I want to be .....sans alcohol......I've wanted it for so long, it almost seems like an impossibility.

Welcome back 
Just for the sake of clarity, Sober Recovery has always relied on sponsors from the treatment industry...their support help keep this place running.
We're independent tho D
