Day 7.... New member...
I'm "new" here but I've been lurking for a while.
I'm not ready to go into a lot of detail about my situation yet but i wanted to say thank you all. I've learned a lot here and am currently on day 7... A little "jittery" but so far I've been doing well... Just taking it one day at a time..

Hey raf,
I was a lurker too for ages before posting, glad you did. Congrats on seven days, your first week!
Taking it one day at a time is all you can do - whether it's Day 7 or 1007 - don't give in to temptation and keep strong.
I hope you'll feel free to post more about your story and how you got here in time, if you feel like it.

Hi Raf, welcome to SR. Nice place here, you can share as much or as little as you feel like it. You can be upbeat, or depressed, or unsure. You can get educated on recovery methods, or do your own thing and get support either way. You can help others as you're able, and learn something here each day.

Pleased to meet you, raf. This is a wonderful place - and I felt so alone before I found it. My friends here have given me strength, hope, & encouragement. I'm glad you're here with us. Great job on seven sober days!

I'm also fighting with myself. My mindset is: I AM GOING TO DO THIS!!! But out of the blue comes a voice that says "who are you kidding, we both know this isnt going to work"..
