I am an alcoholic

Trying to find the old me again. First day on this site, first post, first day trying not to pick up that first drink that leads to 2, 3, .... finally admitted to myself, I AM AN ALCOHOLIC and my life is not want I want it to be because of it. Hoping to get insight and strength from other members experiences.

Welcome, DefiningMe. I have received an enormous amount of support and helpful advice from the good people here at SR. They truly "get it."

Good luck. I am glad you are here with us.

Welcome!!

I joined yesterday and and am truly grateful I found this site. I don't have people in my life who I can talk to about my drinking. Here, I can talk to people without judgement. Everyone so far is so supportive and encouraging. Welcome! You have come to a great place!!!

this site has been a godsend for me. i have a supportive family, but after rehab was missing the fellowship of other sufferers.

it just helps to be able to log on, and help, and be helped. you can even wear your pajamas!

welcome aboard.

You have come to a very loving and supportive place. If you want to quit, you can do it, one day at a time just like the rest of us. We are all here for you.
