New and looking for friends

Hi everyone. I'm 10 months sober and feeling great, but what I'm missing is a sense of community. I'd love to chat with other like minded folks here. I'm 27 and female.

Thanks everyone! I was actually a member of SR over a year ago...maybe more when I was first trying to get sober. It really helped me a lot! I'm glad to be back and be able to say that I am finally sober!

Hey Penny,
Welcome back and congrats on your success in recovery. This is a wonderful place to make friends and to learn to make friends in my case, lol. Frankly, we are all very different people here and it is simply amazing that we can mostly ignore those differences and get down to the business of supporting each other. It just works. :-)

Cheers,
Cas

Hi, Penny, would love a new friend -- especially close to my age and had some success! I am a 25 year old female, finishing up my third day sober!

Hi Penny, I'm also 27 female although I'm only on day 2. Great to hear about ten months, though! That must feel good

Wow, lot's of 27 year olds here! I met another one in the chat this morning too.

I'm glad that we are here to support each other on getting healthy and happy! Feel free to message me if any of you need support for your early days sober.
