1st post!

What's up folks,

I just wanted to introduce myself. For nearly ten years I have been encouraging a defeated mindset thru toxic drugs and alcohol. In order to grow and do what is needed of me I got to give that mess up.

I've had the awesome challenge of maintaing sobriety since May 11th. I slipped up for two days with my doc (methamphetamine) and alcohol but thankfully am back on the right track and have been sober for 9 days. Having extra money in my pocket and idle hands definitely influenced the slip up.

I'm thinking about joining the June 2015 group. Would you guys recommend this?

Respect!
Bay Waters

I would definitely recommend it but I might be biased lol.

Seriously, It's a great source of support.

Welcome to SR Baywaters

You don't have to 'sign up', just post in the class of June thread.

Welcome to the family. You'll find lots of support here. We also have a 24 hour recovery connections thread for daily support. It's in the Daily Support forum. You post once a day to reaffirm your desire to stay clean and sober for the day.
