Today is my first day here. I woke up knowing I had to do something. I am tired, drained and done feeling out of control with alcohol. I will stop for a few days, then drink a bottle and a half of wine without blinking. I look forward to having a community, and learning about myself more.

Welcome Suzy.
Have a good read around here. This place has been a great place for me to get support in my sobriety. Addiction is too tough to go it alone. We are stronger in numbers. And we are all worth it.
Here are two good threads to start:

Hi Suzy glad you are reaching out for support. If there is one thing I have learned battling addiction is that it’s next to impossible to do alone. This community is one of my most used tools in my recovery toolbox. Read as much as you can here, lots of knowledge and inspiration.

Thank you all for your support. It has been a tough evening not taking a drink. Having a hard time, but decided to get on here and be encouraged.

Hi Suzy,
So glad you’re here and when you’re done, you’re done. I think, if you stick to your conviction you’ll be leaping back into the healthy and happy Suzy very soon. We all do it one day at a time, sometimes 10 minutes at a time. Welcome to the TS/ST crew!
