Hi Cold. Welcome. You've come to the right place. I also wrote down all the reasons why I needed to stop, and all the good things that happened when I did. It helps to read it.

You are among friends here.

Welcome.

:welcome

Get to as many meetings as you can and get a sponsor! Congratulations on making a decision that will change your life. You will discover that being an alcoholic is not a bad thing - it will open your mind and soul to a whole new way of living. You will learn to love again, beginning with yourself.

Hi Cold - I understood what you said - loud and clear. I am the same - everything bad that ever happened was because of alcohol abuse. I hope we never go back to living that way.

Be proud of yourself for coming here and telling your story. This is a wonderful place with many great people who really understand what you are going through. Looking forward to hearing more about you.
