So I am curious as to how many of us lurked before joining SR.
Or did you join then lurk.

What were your thoughts on what you read before joining or posting your first time.

I myself cant exactly remember. I am not a lurker much. I probably joined then read a few threads and posted. I lurk when I feel I am in a mood that will not benefit me or anyone else.

Anyone else got some feedback on this?

I lurked around here for about two weeks before I quit drinking and joined. I wanted to get a feel of this place and see if it was something I thought would be helpful and all. Once I had all my curiosities satisfied I quit drinking and joined here all in the same day and haven't looked back or regreted it.

I meant to put an option for I didnt lurk at all or something like that.

Impurrfect

I definitely lurked...probably for close to a year. I thought it was a great place, had several people I "clicked" with but, for some reason, didn't join until I had about six months into recovery. I probably could have saved myself a relapse if I had joined earlier

Hugs and prayers!

I lurked through a relapse. Enough is enough.

I just joined and started posting.
So far so good.
Got a lot of helpful responses to my first post or I probably wouldn't have come back.

Joined and posted and have never regretted it. Never!

I lurked for 2 years, on and off, before joining. Watching from the outside sure is different than being a part of it

Bamboozle

Lurked for a couple of months first...still lurk every now and again.

Neither of the above. I was surfing for inspirational stories and found this site. Then, I joined........

OMG, I didn't remember and actually had to go back and look! I do remember I found SR about a week or two before I actually joined. When I joined I waited a little while before posting~

windysan

Dang, I went back and looked at my stuff too. Kind of embarrassing to me. I sure was in a fog.

I don't know if you consider logging in as invisible lurking, but that's what I do. Love to jump out the bushes and go BOO!

Seriously, I have a good reason for staying invisible, actually has nothing to do with the guys I know here. Any of them.

Aysha

I am incognito too.
Just cause.
