Greetings from a Sober Soldier
Greetings from a Sober Soldier
Hi all,
I just finished my PTSD treatment and then treatment for my alcohol dependance at a Veterans Hospital. I'm extremely excited to live my life sober. When I came back from Iraq (for the time 3rd time!) I was emotionally fried. I turned to alcohol as my "PTSD Medicine". Things quickly spiraled out control for me but this time I'm actually facing my problems instead of trying to drink them away.
Thanks,
Chuck

Welcome Chuck! We're so glad to have you join us. I think SR will be very helpful for you as you begin your sober journey. You have a wonderful attitude, and that'll help.
Thank you for serving and the sacrifices you've made. I'm glad you received treatment for both issues - some never reach out for help. Here's to a great new life.
