Welcome excuse maker!

This was my first forum as well. I started with an introduction of what brought me here. I read everything I could and posted any questions I had. There is so much knowledge and supper there.

I am glad you found us!

Hi excusemaker
There's a first time for all of us! I remember my first time..It's pretty cool though. Lots of supportive and knowledgeable people....I feel like I'm not alone when I'm with SR.

RockBottom ,is a miserable place to be, but you can move on and you never need to be there again.

Rock bottom? When you think it would be helpful to share, we are hear to listen. We've also been there (or are there now!) and can relate.

A tip for anonymity, use terms like 'sister' or 'husband' instead of proper names when sharing.

How are you doing today?

Welcome excusemaker! I'm new to this forum as well, also new to being sober, wrapping up my third day. I've been blown away by the support and wisdom on this forum since I first posted, it really is a great place! You're not alone in this!
