Smile Good morning!

Hi everyone.
I just joined as I am looking for somewhere for a distraction for when I am staying home instead of going out partying and drinking. I am currently 34 days sober.
Longest ever.

I can't quite manage going out and staying out around drunk friends. Not without the temptation.

Anyway, just saying hi. Looking forward to chatting to people here

Welcome, Tia! You came to a good place. Lots of nice supportive people and a ton of stuff to read when you're looking to distract yourself for a few minutes or hours.

Congratulations on 34 days, that's amazing!

Welcome and congratulations on your sober time.
Wise to avoid the places where drinking is going on.
Peace.

Welcome and congratulations on Day 34!

I'm glad you posted, and you're right about making lifestyle changes. I couldn't be around alcohol for quite some time when I stopped drinking.

Welcome to SR, Tia!

This is a very wise realization for you to have. This place is wonderful for information and support if sobriety is what you're looking for.
