Trying to live right!!!
 

I'm 31 years old and I've been drinking and using since I was little (off and on) but for a long while now it's been more on than off. I have been in and out of sobriety and right now I'm just trying to get back. I am a testimony to the fact that when going back out it progressively gets worse. I know sobriety and the joys it can bring along with the difficulties. I like being sober, my family wants and likes me that way too. So I'm ok right now but fear tomorrow, so as it is said one day at a time and I just need to find my strength, hope, and spiritulness once again!!!! I am really tired of the roller coaster ride Iv'e been on the ups and downs the extreme highs and lows the drinking not drinking. I just want to live a stable good life (don't we all)? So I hope I can find the tools in which to do so!!!

Welcome to the family Lexie!! So many wonderful people here who understand what you are going through. We are here to help.

Welcome, Lexie. Phinny, here. Alcoholic / addict. I found the tools you mentioned in the rooms of AA. When I first went to AA, I found people who understood because they had been there themselves. I found hope for a new life. I found the willingness and courage and strength to stay sober one minute, one hour and one day at a time.

Go to a meeting and see for yourself, k?

hugs,
