Thanks Dan. I have registered. Now what? I've never done a chat room before. By the way, thanks for the portland info. I'm off to an 8pm meeting in a bit.

At the bottom of the main page, you'll see the "Chat and Online meetings" forum. You'll find a schedule there. The chat room is open 24/7. As you make friends here, feel free to send them a Private Message and invite them to chat. Or just drop in there! Never know who's there!
And I'm glad you found a meeting to go to.
Nothing replaces a meeting in 3D

It will be fine, remember the meetings are filled with wonderful people dealing with the same problems as you. You won't find anyone more understanding then those that have shared the same life experiences. You'll feel much better after the meeting I'm sure. Good luck.

Hi Talia,

Same theme, different faces. Made it through and met several caring people. A bit on the tired and puny side right now. Glad I'm doing this and thanking the big GUY for helping me find this site, you wonderful people and a meeting close to home.
