Why SR is a Utopia Of all the zones in my world, there is literally none where I am so sure the inhabitants have my best interests in mind. If I'm feeling strained, someone is here. If I'm feeling confident, someone applauds. It is heartbreakingly beautiful to know that I came home in a desperate panic (only six days sober and a world class drama day) and people really care about what I'm going through. And I make sure to share my love with others too. Utopia. A community where we all have each other's best interests in mind. Thank you SR. Thank you Dee and company (some of the best people I've ever known) |
Thanks back atcha Missy - and everyone - for help making this place what it is :) I think you've identified something really fundamental...this is a place where people - people I've never met 'in person' & probably never will - have me and my best interests at heart, and I theirs. That's pretty special :) :grouphug: D |
Always on your side, Friend. |
Missy, I agree with you completely. When I came here I felt a huge sense of relief - I was home. :) So happy you feel the same, & thanks for all that you've contributed so far. |
Missy...i agree also!! This site has been my saving grace for sure!! I feel at home!! Lind |
We all share the same pain and experiences. I really want you to get the peace and serenity in your life that I have. |
Agreed! |
http://www.mazeguy.net/happy/thumbsup.gif I agree Missy. SR is playing a big part in my wellness journey also. I believe I have received more insight into recovering from alcohol/drug addiction here at SR than all of the other recovery programs, meetings, groups and therapy sessions I have participated in. http://www.mazeguy.net/romantic/grouphug.gif May you continue to find your way to live a happy and healthy life harmful substance free. |
Great post Missy. Spot on Like Sapling, I wish I'd found SR in the beginning of my journey. I found SR 5 months in and felt like I'd hit the jackpot - I can not even begin to measure the boost and healing that SR, and the members of this site, has given me....a true blessing it is :) |
M7. What you are growing is a powerful force. I love that SR is a safe and welcoming space for us all. |
So agree. Do believe SR saved my life. Taught me how to grow sober. |
YES I agree with all of the above and I would add that this is one of the most beautiful uses of the internet--to harness our better angels. It is so much more than porn, violence, advertising and other silliness. |
I love it here too. It is such a safe haven. So proud of you for how well you are doing and for sharing your journey with us. :) |

Thank you for that post missy. :) I hope you'll stay and become another one of my crazy friends here. :) (oh yes, we are all freakin nuts and we love it!) |
This is a pretty cool place. It's definitely played a role in helping me stay sober. |
