That’s really cool.
Sharing in groups has helped me a lot.
I usually feel really good after a meeting but the secret is, you gotta try different meetings and find the one with people you like listening to. That can be tricky for some, based on their location.

I never had an oportunitiy to go to meetings, we don’t have that at my place, and where I am at now also. Think it’s a great thing to have but I remember what Stevie said , whatever works !
For me this forum helped me before and now.
Like a toothbrush , the best one is the one you use .
Funny story, I was talking to my guests from the U.S and said like the thing I want to visit most when I visit is an AA meeting …

I really love going to meetings. I always felt so alone in my drinking but I don’t feel so alone anymore. I’ve met so many great people who have been helping me out and showing me the way. How are you doing today???

So yesterday we went to breakfast after the meeting. Thevold timer, 40+ years, made us all get banana splits for breakfast. It was fun.

That sounds nice , uplifting , some weirdly nice tone to your message.
I really thrive in solitude , I mean being with people never worked out for me well, it ended always in me going to hell and everybody else just passing by. I never had enough time to toughen up , to steady myself and find right people and environment. So… I hope this will last long enough so I can try…
This isolation really is doing wonders and I enjoy it a lot. I feel awesome , excercising, reading just having a good day one after another. The one thing I am planning for is that this will end at one point and I’ll have to either be ready or continue being far away from everything.

Hey! Checking in again at day 5! Today’s a good day! I’m going to a meeting and going to the gym afterwards.
I tried the isolation thing. It worked for a little while, it was actually my longest stretch of sobriety. But I developed many toxic relationships where I was too dependent on people for reassurance and praise. I should happy within myself and I wasn’t. It’s something I need to work on. So now I go to meetings and I have a network of people that I talk to everyday. I think it’ll take time but I think it’ll get better. Anyhoo hope you have a great day! Stay strong man!

That would be really cool to celebrate that way!
With whatever it takes i shall not drink. Im so grateful for what i got in my life now . To me it is a blessing , yes it’s tough to handle life sometimes but it’s worth it to go to bed with the knowing i be sober tomorrow. I choose to be hopefull and aware of my actions. My higher power and you and others in my circle guides me . And my loved ones too. Wish u all the best . Stay motivated and willing 
and God bless us all
