Hi Kevin,

Welcome! This is a great place for experience, strength and hope. There is an incredible amount of sobriety in these forums. Be it one day, one year, 10 years etc. There is something to learn from everyone. I look forward to reading your posts.

Cathy

I'm so glad you joined us, Kevin. I was lost until I came here - the understanding & friendship made all the difference to me. I no longer felt alone. You sound ready to do this - we know you can.

Early morning

This post isn't to make make friends or anything really.
I just wanted to point out that i am almost 2 weeks clean from today.

Witch is a HUGE win for me.

I know i' not one to give life advice such as yet, but what I've learned is that every morning i have to wake up and remind myself (revocery first)

Could be a book, a few inspiration quotes... or even a little little as look at my daily/nightly journal and see my small victory for yesterday, ;; i stayed clean;

Then start today journal--"sobriety is number one.. because we all know what happens when its put number 2

Good morning everyone. I hope you have a wonderful day.

Sobriety always needs to be the no1 priority for a sober alcoholic 🙏

If i wanted tot start to get onto the community slowly, what (in your opinion) would be the best way of doing that?

I am really interested in meetings and things like that.
