I don't sign on or contribute as much as I used to. Some days I really miss it here and wish I was more involved with the newer people. Although I am permanently sober and thankful I got here and can stay here without the time imposition of AA, I sometimes think the community that AA provides is something I would like in my life. Both to fortify my sobriety and to be able to give back to others who might benefit from whatever it is I can provide on their sober journey. There are a few people here and there on SR I have been lucky enough to "get to know" virtually.

So I logged in this morning because I wanted to see how CP was doing and read his post from a few weeks ago. I'm sorry to hear you decided to drink brother. I hope you are reading this and know that we are all here, SR is here and that sober life, that better, clearer, cleaner, more peaceful life, is here, waiting for you.

Here's to saying strong and sober this autumnal Monday morning. Grateful for this place.

Ditto LG.

Very well stated.

I confused abstinence with control in 2019, and it’s taken me two wasted years (pun intended) to be strong enough to love myself.

We are here to support you, James 🥰

Yes, let’s hear from you CP!

It really is sad when people just disappear. If they're doing fine, they could at least check in and say hi.

A few years back, I had an active member on the forum of my site (a flight sim site). His wife signed up and told us he was.... gone.

RIP Chopper.

And to Clearpath, failure is a segment of recovery. Addiction is not someone anyone would ever choose, but people get get caught in it for different reasons.

Please check in if you are okay. Even if you are caught in the drinking loop.

I'm sure CP is just fine.

I feel the pain of anyone who relapses, but I always admire their honesty and bravery to come back and post about it. There’ll definitely be no negativity or tellings off 🙂

Not to hijack but Soberican is one I’ll always wonder what happened to.

I really want to know where Be is at, he was the last sober member of my March 2020 group before he disappeared, only to return for a week after relapsing and then disappearing again 😪
