Hi byrdnest! I made it 'for good' almost 5 yrs. ago, after drinking all my life. You can do it!

Not feeling alone anymore is the best thing about being here. We all get you, & understand like no one else can. Keep talking to us.

A program

People and places are and were huge for me , specially the first 3,6, months.

Meetings

And to remember its still life , and life will still continue.

To open up, and talk ...

Dont drink even if your ass falls off

Congrats on you month milestone..

Welcome to the family! And congrats on your sober time. Keep on keepin' on, one day at a time. I used to think I was hopeless but am coming up on three years sober so it is possible.

Welcome byrdnest I see that you like fitness. I'm a huge gym rat. Maybe we can talk about our workouts some time. The gym is my biggest weapon in sobriety
