Hello...new here

Hi all, looking for support on the internet. I live rural and can only get to 3 meetings a week. Sometimes I can get snowed in for days. I would really like to make some friends here

May I ask how we can help you? There's a lot of support here, both for the addict and their friends and family. Read and post as you like. There's someone here all the time as we are a global family.

Just being part of the family is the help I need

Hi and Welcome. there is some VG support here, some based on the fellowship. The best I can suggest is an old one I heard early on. "If we don't pick up the first drink, we don't have to try to get sober AGAIN."
But I'm old fashioned.

BE WELL

Welcome Mamgoat
Meetings aren't the only way to get sober, Many people only use SR and /or other online support

Welcome MamaGoat. I just use SR - it's a very supportive community and also tons of information. Read thru the posts for things that apply to you. I found that knowing what to expect and seeing others are going through similar struggles helps a lot.
