Looking for support
Welcome, Downnotout. We're here to encourage you as you seek sobriety.
I drank many years. Finding SR was the turning point for me - I knew I'd never have to feel alone again. People in my life just didn't understand what I was going through, & there was no way I could explain it. I hope you'll find the support you're looking for.

We'll be your support here. You'll find a lot of caring people and we've been through the same things you have. I needed support, too, so I came here. It's been a life saver.
Just remember, you never have to drink again.
Feel free to post away.

Welcome, Downnotout. I am very glad you're here; SR has been a vital part of my getting and staying sober--the help, support and encouragement I receive has been a lifesaver. I hope you stick around and take advantage of this wonderful resource. We get it and want to help. Best wishes on your sober journey. Your username is true--you may be down but definitely not out--you can do this!

Well here is my day three back to the good life. Im feeling a whole lot better about myself and i am going to slow my life down to the point of where it is manageable for me. I am only going to concern myself with me until i am strong again. I cannot help anybody else until i help myself, and for now hopefully some of my family and friends get some strength from what i am trying to do. That's all i can offer for now.

Well I returned to the gym today and it felt so good after my workout. I should explain that i have been trying for last two months to give up the bottle, and except for a few hiccups in that period...I was doing good. But I knew i had to become a part of the SR family to really take me over the top and i am living life one day at a time. I finally grasped that saying and i will be utilizing every source of support i have to keep me moving forward.
