Just starting the journey to sobriety. Strange using such words ie sobriety, alcoholic. Struggling with the labels

Trying to navigate around this site. Not sure where to start?!

You're in newcomers. That's a good place to start. :)

When I got sober I didn't know what I'd do with my time if I wasn't drinking. Turns out I can do anything I want, and do it better too. :)

I'm new too and have so found this place to be helpful and non-threatening. Feel free to spill your guts. It's okay.

I'm new too. I've found it helpful so far. People have been pretty honest. See you around

Don't worry about the labels. I don't like labels either. But, if alcohol is causing problems in your life, you're in the right place.

Welcome, carpediem, to SR. Glad you found us.

I am an alcoholic; as long as I am a non-drinking alcoholic/alcoholic in recovery, I am okay with the label/term.
