Day 2, second meeting tonight.

Went on my own last night and glad I did, course I didn't sleep much last night but I know I have to stop messing about and actually do something. The welcome was overwhelming, I want what they got. freedom from this hell. Thanks Soberrecovery. Time for some hard work and I finally realised that I cannot stop on my own.

Good for you! Going and reaching out was probably the hardest thing I ever did but the best step to a life of freedom. I'm glad you felt welcomed. Well done.

I can appreciate how nervous you must have been. Once you go a couple of times I think it gets easier. If you're given phone numbers of women to call, please use them! Ask if the person is comfortable getting texts too. Sometimes I find it hard to call but texting has been a life saver on occasion. Those one hour meetings became a haven.
