New Boy.

Hello all. I am new to this site and from a very cold England. I have been a heavy drinker for the last 15 years and drink dependant for 2 years. I have been completely sober for the last 32 days and can feel my health improving on a daily basis. I would just like to say I have found many of the posts very helpful and hope to make a few friends to help my recovery.

Welcome to SR English!

Congrats on your Day 32! Isn't it amazing how much clearer your brain gets over time without the alcohol. I can't personally attest to that today since I'm only beginning my Day 2 journey but I'm on my way.

Hello & welcome English.

I'm grateful that the changes are so dramatic in the first month. It really has helped my resolve.

Pleased to meet you, English. (We're cold here in New York, too ). It's wonderful to have you join us. This place saved me from a terrible fate - I hope you'll find it to be filled with hope and encouragement.

Welcome to SR mate!

I live in San Diego so we get lucky with the winters here but... I'm still an alcoholic in the sunshine or the cold. Lol. When I moved here I thought, now I'll be able to be happy in California where it never snows! Lol. Didn't happen. Happened when I started to get sober and got a program. I still prefer a warm day to a chilly one though. Stay bundled up!

Glad you're here.

Welcome English and a huge congrats on your 32 days. I'm on Day 4 and already feeling a bit better.

I only joined SR today after lurking for a while. This is such a supportive and inspirational place! We'll all take this journey TOGETHER.
