hi! this is my first day here too.
I have spent so many hours today looking and reading and trying to find help here, and all I can say is 'YAY!"

I am trying to head towards sobriety...I know I have to...not there yet but... fingers crossed.
What brings you here? Can you talk about it?

Hi my name is Martin and I am an alcoholic.

Let me welcome Australia and Iam138 to SR.

There are a lot of good folks here and a lot of opinions to boot.

Tell us a bit about your selfs, what have you tried to stop drinking? Any questions you have, there are people here more then happy to share what they have done to get and stay sober, there are folks here still trying to quit and even a few who have not admitted they have a problem that warrants them to stop drinking seeking help in cutting back.

This place really does seem to be helpful..people here really care...because we all matter..and you matter...
Helping you matters as much as helping myself...
Its a horrible thing to live with, to go through...
Trust me ...you are not alone..
