Hi

I think your doctor is right.
This website has really helped me.
Are you trying to fight an addiction to drugs or alcohol?

Wishing you the best

Hi karson!

Welcome to SR. You will get lots of support and help here. I found this site when I was about 5 months sober. I am so thankful for it.

Welcome karson. This website has been one of the cornerstones in the foundation of my sobriety so far. You've come to a good place!

That's pretty cool that your dr have you this site! He is a wise man and maybe a sober soldier himself.
