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. |
Welcome Cold. You can count me as one of the people with a similar list as you have. It makes me do the right thing. I use Sr for my support system. Good luck in your goal. |
Welcome to SR! I'm glad you found us and joined the family. Congrats on deciding to live a sober life. It's so much better living sober than drinking. :) |
We understood your post and glad you are here I used to order 2 drinks for last call tho I was already drunk. I can relate. :eek: Welcome....:wave: |
Welcome! Glad you are here. We do recover! :) |
Welcome to SR Cold :) D |
Hi and Welcome! You will find lots of support here. |
Thanks for the warm welcome,seems that this place will be very helpful and there's good people around here. |
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. |
