Hello. I’m currently 12 days into my recovery and determined to make it through the storm. Is there anyone else?

Hey, welcome and well done on 12 days. That first week can really be the toughest and standing by it a whole other challenge.
I found hitting up the Checking in Daily thread was really helpful. Gave me a place to touch base every day for my own accountability while witnessing and supporting others, too. Great lot of folks in there!

Hello and welcome!
How are you doing?
I’ve been better. Temptation is VERY strong at the moment.
Welcome to TS! Being on this forum as much as possible helps with temptations. I am usually on here in the morning and at night. Read as much as you can!

Sorry to hear. I try to see them as waves, they come and go. It’s hard to ride them, but you can!
And like learning something new: you will be better in it when sober days go by. Distraction is the clue to beat them!
