Hi--I'm new :)

Well, I've been "lurking" around this site for a while and was debating about posting since I am a naturally shy person but when I saw how genuinely supportive, encouraging, and welcoming everyone is... I changed my mind.

I've been struggling with binge drinking for a while. My sober date is October 30, 2015. I'm looking forward to joining this awesome community and learning more about you all.

Great job. No need to be shy, its an internet forum, no one knows who you are. But we are all here for one purpose, to support each other in our efforts to get sober. You are well on your way at 17 days. Just keep pushing and make sure you keep yourself busy.
