Day 1

Today is the first day of the rest of my life. Today I choose to live my life sober. I don't really know what to expect. Any advice for a newbie would be appreciated. Thank you and God bless....

Hi bigstan, welcome to SR!

There are lots of support here. Be sure to read and post as much as you like.

My main advice is to get plenty of rest, eat healthy and try to do some exercise, these are all things that will help in your recovery.

Welcome and good decision!

It's always a good idea to talk to your dr because detoxing from alcohol can be dangerous.

You will find lots of support here.

It's so good to have you with us, BigStan.

In the early days of my recovery I posted here a lot. I needed the company & reassurance. It helped tremendously because everyone understood what I was going through. I hope your day has gone well.
