Hello

I知 wondering if this is still an active community to look for support. I am struggling with alcoholism. I am a functioning alcoholic, amongst many other addictive vices. I知 hoping to find the strength to quit for good. Battling a relapse after a year sober. I will digress if I know this site is still active. Thank you all.

Hi and welcome

Yes we're very active and we have many alcoholics here - some stopped, some trying to stop.

.Pull up a cyber seat and, if you like, share more of your story

Welcome. I would describe this site as unusually active, and many have said it was a major player in their recovery. Of course, the alcoholic has to be the most important factor in his own recovery, but added help from those who have "been there" is a big plus.

Great to meet you, Peachy. SR helped me stop drinking after decades of dependence. I know I never have to feel alone again. Welcome!

Welcome Peachy.

Are you ready to stop drinking? Have you tried before?

I quit and I leaned heavily on this site and its deep well of wisdom - there are hundreds of thousands of past threads and many current active members. If you post, someone will answer.

I'm glad you've joined us, Peachypenguin. You will find lots of support here. Since you had a year of sobriety, I'm sure you have a good idea what you need to do. Maybe you can find some ideas to add to your plan so that you can remain sober.

I think so...

JK!!! i POST HERE EVERY DAY.

Hi,

Just an FYI - you'll get sober when you're ready. That's my position.
It can be as monumental or as simple as you make it. There is an equation to it, but it's not exactly rocket science stuff.
Stop drinking. That's all you have to do.
When you want to drink alcohol - drink or do something else.
If you can master this - you'll be on a role.
