Day One

I am new to this site and this is Day one for me....again. It has to be the final one. I heard about this site on The SHAIR podcast. I am in my fifties and have been drinking regularly, except for pregnancies since about the age of 16. I would like to have the remainder of my days be free. I know God has a much better plan for me than I have had for myself so it is also Day one of new surrender to Him.

It's so good to have you here, Sewber. I was older too when I found SR & finally got free.

I started drinking in my 20's, & over time became completely dependent on it. I was so tired of living life in a fog - not fully experiencing anything. You'll find plenty of encouragement here - and you're never alone.

I like that "Have the remainder of my days be free".
It really is freedom.

Welcome, I'm 50 and in early recovery. It's never too late to feel great, enjoy life and be of service to others.
