Trying, just trying,

watching Betty Ford's funeral and getting inspired. Drunk for two weeks straight and not knowing how to get out of it.

Hi Fen

Welcome coming here is a good start - you'll find a lot of support

Beyond SR, a lot of people find going to their Dr can be a good first step - it's not only a good idea for detox to have some medical advice but you might also get advice on where to go or what to do next.

Counselling and rehab (inpatient and outpatient) have helped a lot of people here too.

Recovery groups are probably the most accessible face to face help though - there's AA, but there's others too.

Here's some links to some of the main players:

Good to have you with us - as long as you keep trying you can never lose Fen

to SR.


What has helped me is reading here at SR, AA, my sponsor through AA, and the support I have through AA.
