Welcome to SR, Elvira! It's so good to have you with us.
Congrats on your sobriety - well done. I think you'll find this a great place to spend time as you get use to a better way of life. I felt lost until I came here. No one in my life really understood what I was going through. Hope you'll keep reading & posting. We care.

Welcome to SR Elvira. 10 days is a great start. 10 tough foundational days to build upon. I hope you keep posting on this thread and tell us how it is going. Healthy, sober, calm and quiet is such a preferable way to live, isn't it?

Hi Elvira, glad you made the SR scene! You don't have to drink at all anymore, and this forum can help immensely with that. It was vital in me getting sober 5 years ago, I was just about dead, not even kidding. Your new sober life is waiting up ahead for you, and thankfully sobriety is a skill that we all can learn, even if it may not seem like that early on. Welcome.

Hi Elvira

Welcome to SR.

The desktop version opens up a whole new world. Lots to explore here, from the December class to word games and funnies.

We understand….
