I joined just a couple of weeks ago. This forum is a Godsend. There’s always someone ready to give advice and support! Welcome aboard!

I always scoffed at the whole one day at a time thing…to me it was nothing more than a cliche…I wish I would have figured out how wrong I was years ago. And when the day becomes tough…I come here

457350… my goal now is to leave the wknd beer alone
This is day one… I’m at work so that helps… It’s great to have found this forum and app. Good to know I’m not in this alone. I’m a single dad and don’t have many friends outside of work… so it’s been tough. One of the reasons for the drinking. Boredom and alone.

At first, I really fought to NOT become friends with people at meetings. But I’ve come around and highly recommend participating in the pre and post meetings. I’ve found true friends in recovery.

That’s pretty much the only friends I have now and I wouldn’t want it any other way
