Good luck and stay in touch I’m on day one. It’s just not worth it we can do this !!!
Annie Graces? What’s that. I live in Surrey where can I attend AA? I can also do online stuff I really don’t mind
Yes firstly your porn addiction!! Be careful with that I was posted illegally on a site from an ex and it has ruined my life so msg e think about who you are watching as the entire porn game is running through girls are are addicted, sex slaves, drug addicts and illegal content so maybe think about that next time you go on and look. It really has ruined my happiness
Plz send me any kind of links to help me please. I get angry when drinking and destroy everything around me anything in Surrey ?
Ok I have downloaded Annie audio my mind listening now

I am also a binge drinker.
I get emotional and anti social. I’m trying real hard now not to drink.
Good luck you can do it.
I am with you. And even if you moved only a little bit, that is something great. Keep moving forward
Welcome to the forum. What steps are you taking to ensure you continue forward and not back when you’re out with friends?
First 3 hours in .
Anyone on here is making moves.
That’s BRAVE! Congrats all.
I’m in the baby phase stage but happy to be here. None is us are alone and that so cool
In a supportive sense.
We can do it
I’ve implemented rest! Letting myself relax and take the time I need to heal which includes separation from people who use. Long bike rides with my kids, lots of puppy walking, pool swims, and new work hobbies that don’t trigger me. Building new life, people and habits as I let myself feel the desires of wanting to use BUT then my plan on a consistent basis is to transfer that desire to positive highs.
Thanks so much ill take a look!
How is your journey so far? I’m in 3 days
I’m 3 days sober and avoiding going out currently taking walks reading books and self care like baths and listening to motivational stuff
Wahoo! I’m okay right now but it’s gonna be hard let’s update one another and support!
I am 10 days in yay!!! Last night I tried non alcohol beer it wasn’t so bad
Congrats on getting 10 days in! Thats fantastic
Thank you! It’s like watered down beer but actually didn’t mind it!
I figured it’s more, the habit of having something to hold and sip whilst socialising. Watching people get drunk is more satisfying knowing that I am not.
Waking up with zero hangover today felt truly amazing and so proud of myself
How are you on your journey ?
Sarah
Hello Sarah
So happy for you and yes something to be proud of! I know it’s a controversial topic for the na drinks but I do myself find that they do help in the social settings. Some are better than others but still anything is better than the actual drink and the damn after effects. So nice to wake up sober and with no hangover.
I am doing well and keep reminding myself that this journey is one day at a time. Some days are harder than others but I fee like this time around is different and I am determined to keep my sobriety ticker moving forward. Love this community and all the support that it provides.
