Another newbie!

Just wanted to say "hi"! I'm new to this site and look forward to chatting with others who have gone through or will go through winning the battle of the bottle! I'm doing well so far (no alcohol since Aug 2009), but find I don't have anyone in my hometown to talk to about the hold alcohol had on me for so many years. I have not attended any AA meetings since returning home from rehab.

Anyway, I found this site and thought I'd give it a try!

Welcome to the forum - (and congrats on your sober time!) This is a great place to come for support - it's been my mainstay for the past 9+ months......

Glad you're here and look forward to more posts!

Welcome Triple! Glad you are with us and you have our support.

What I love about this site is that these folks get it and while I no longer come here to stay focused on sobriety.....it has become part of my recovery and is just a great positive place to share and I have made quite a few online pals here too!

Way to go on your beautiful time sober!!

Welcome, triplecrown. I see you're from the real LA; we Southerners know what's up.

Congrats on your sober time. Sorry you don't have anyone near you to commiserate with, but I'm really glad you found this site. It's been a fantastic resource for me in my recovery.
