Welcome Sean! I'm so glad you found us.

Congratulations on your 3 weeks. We all understand how hard it is - but it gets easier as you go along. It feels wonderful to be free of it! Glad you are here.

Thank You to everyone for your kind welcomes! Do any of you have some recovery books that you could recommend?
