As an alumnus of the class of 2010, I always post in September to offer hope and support. I'm ten years without a drink. Every sober day a blessing. A life without alcohol can be found. It often won't feel like it, and you often won't believe it, but it's true. Sobriety is not a punishment.

Commit to quitting. Accept you can never drink again. And do whatever you can to support that decision.

Welcome to Sober Recovery. Stick around.

I started on August 31, but close enough to September, so I'll join this class. I've lurked for years. Time to start doing more than just reading.

I'm in. I've been in a few classes. Thanks to Dee, Caramel, doggoncarl. You have no idea how much you mean to all us struggling. A bit of tapering today, to hopefully avoid the gastrointestinal pyrotechnics, as I like to call withdrawal. But I'm in. Thanks.

I'm technically on day 9 today, and have been posting in the August thread. But I feel I need as much support as I can get at the moment so hope you don't mind me checking in here also

Bless you Venus. We have a new cat, a stray, black as night. We didn't really pay much attention, so we cal!ed him Sally. Because he's a Sally.

Anyway, we got him all his shots, got him fixed. Tomcat head and the body of a squirrel. Sally the squirrel.

I'm joining the Class Of Septenber 2020 as I foolishly slipped last week and started drinking again. I finished last night and now I'm going through Day 1 hell feeling absolutely shattered.. Thankfully the drop in group in my locality I was attending until March is soon to restart so at least I have somewhere to physically attend as well as visiting here at SR.

I've not got a cat (I love cats but I'm allergic to them) but I do have a massive spider in my living room. It's been there since Saturday but I can't catch the thing to put it outside. Everytime I try to cup it in my hands it keeps running away!

It's spider season here in the UK (and probably elsewhere) and it's quite common to have them inisde houses at this time of year.

I started drinking 3 and a half hours ago and had 2 cans so I'm guessing my bac is 0 now. Time to shower and brush my teeth.

Hope everyone is doing well today! Last night was pretty sleepless and sweaty. I'm hoping to go for a walk later if it isn't too smoky from some recent fires. Other than that, I'm at work all day. I'll check in tonight.
