An update....
I'm not sure if many of you will remember me. I spent a lot of time on this forum and especially in chat last year. Thought I would come by to see how people are doing, and to give a little update on what I've been up to in my absence. Not through ego or anything, just for anyone who is struggling like I was last year, believing myself hopeless and recovery impossible.
I am approaching a year sober, one day at a time! I have to pinch myself sometime with how much life has transformed in a relatively short period of time. Have done a lot of work on myself and a lot more to do (lifelong job!) But I am happily living sober. For me I picked up all the tools available in AA, after several years of going in and out the rooms (being choosy about what I would and would not do, full of fear and pride) and it took being totally broken last year to finally be willing to go to any lengths to stay sober. Getting honest with myself and others.
I still have a lot to learn and I try to do my best of a day. I just wanted to express my gratitude to those on here who talked me through when I was struggling and the unconditional love and support you gave. Late in the night when I felt entirely alone this site got mr through. I threw myself into the fellowship of AA but on here is yet another fellowship. I felt I should share this, if anyone is thinking they can't do this .... don't give up before the miracle happens.
