Thank you so much. You have no idea what that means to me. I am here because I am lacking support. I’m desperate for a sense of community of people like me. The person I am closest to doesn’t take my recovery seriously at all.

You have definitely come to the right place. I feel that this community has given me so much - the comfort, acceptance, love, advise and so much more.
I’m sorry that you are not getting the support you need from those closest to you. Many times, I family and friends do not grasp what we are facing and the hurdles we face when we do begin the sobriety train. You are among friends and we have so many people here with similar situations and at different stages of recovery.
Hope to see you around this app -

For the longest time, I thought that simply not having people in my life who use was enough & yes, it kept me clean, however I feel so lonely.

You really are living a clean life - well done on gaining so many sober days! It is important to relieve yourself and your environment of toxity. It can be a lonely road if you dont fill those holes with like minded people
Do you go to any meetings? Ive heard thats a great way to meet people with similar values in real life. How about sober meet up groups? Are they available in your area?
You do now have a group of virtual friends in this community. Read around and jump in when you are ready.

I’m very sorry to hear this Alex
Cutting people out of your life that use is a good thing to do for your recovery, but you do need to fill that void with friends that don’t. We are human, we still need to feel that connection to others.
We are really glad you came here to us, and really hope you stay! As others have said, it’s such a great community of people that genuinely care and want to support each other 
In your shoes, I’d check out local clubs and events going on. Meetup.com might also have sober events near you. Try new things, put yourself out there. Sure, it can be a bit nerve-wracking, but I’m sure once you’ve done initial meet and greets, you’ll wonder what you were worried about!
We are here for you anyway, and well done having such a great sober number!!
