Guess Who’s Back, Back Again?

Finally after asking for help from August I got a Community Hospital Alcohol Detox last week and am 9 days sober...

This is after drinking 2-3 bottles of wine a night for 18 months...

I’ve now been to 2 AA meetings, 2 Addaction meetings; a private counselling session already this week and I intend reaching out as much as possible...

Thank God for me reaching this point...

Best of luck to all still trying...

Glad to hear how your recovery is going, too. Good going on that!

Keep at it! For me, once I got past the insurmountable 'wall' that got knocked down with a few AA meetings(court ordered) and constant posting/reading on here, I was able to get past the 'false thinking'. It's hard work at first,but gets easier with minutes/days/months DOC free.

Owning my stuff/reality is what set me free.

We're glad you're here with us, FF.

I'm especially glad that you're heading out to a meeting.

They, and the 12 steps, have certainly helped me get and stay sober when nothing else would.
