Whatever you choose to do

Hello newcomers (I'm new here myself)

Just want to say hi your not alone and if your trying to get sober i salute you

I think through friendship and understanding we will learn more and more about our alcoholism/addictions/problems etc

i remember being scared afraid terrified even sometimes (I didn't have internet in early sobriety and i was agrophobic) and if your ever feeling like that I just want to say it again your not alone

to each and evey newcomer I want to shake your hand and say hi I'm soberwolf I am alcoholic if I can help ask because it helps me too

The SR team have really helped me out since I landed here

To every single newcomer sober or not welcome and keep on trying

Great thread Soberwolf. That is what SR is all about. Helping on another along a sometimes rocky road, reaching out and getting the help we need along the way too. Have a great day.

Well said! Today is day 6 for me. I've been on sr for about 10 months I think but it's always nice to "see" familiar faces.

Soberwolf ~ awesome post. You are 100% right on everything. I'm glad we are walking this path together. Yep, together we can do this.

SR is like a safe, warm blanket for me. I know I will not be judged here. I know when I need help, all I have to do is ask and someone out there will be there. I know I am not alone on this journey and that when I stumble, others will stop and help pick me up. I know when I am doing well that others will cheer me on and give me encouragement and strength.
To any "lurkers" who may be suffering in silence and reading, don't be afraid.

It's a grand and glorious gesture to reach out from the heart of one who has walked the path to those who are just stepping on it.

Beautiful words. Even more beautiful energy behind those words.
