Getting outdoors and getting moving is a brilliant way to start building healthy habits. Walking solo can be a good way to practice mindfulness and process some of the feelings that come up in sobriety. But it’s also a great group activity, a way to meet new people and build sober relationships.

Something about sobriety is feeling all the feels. There’s a lot to process and it’s probably stuff you’ve pushed away, ignored, or made worse through your addiction. It can be hard to face up to.
@aircircle shares some really helpful stuff on this thread, taken from The Language of Letting Go app.

Most of us with some decent sobriety time had tried (and failed) to get sober before. These posts are a collection of things that didn’t work… Any of them sound familiar?
Learning what doesn’t work for you can be an important part of making sobriety stick, as long as you act on what you learn. Nothing changes if nothing changes!

I am not so patiently waiting for these to start. I don’t even care how loud or how frequent. I just need them. Now.

It’s Friday! That means the weekend is coming and doing weekends sober can be weird. First events sober are scary for most of us…
And if you’re not ready to venture out yet then there are always people hanging out here

Hey my name is new comer and I need a sponsor I have 24 days clean and sober
Hi Brandie.
Welcome. Have a good read around on here if you’re not already.
Search up that question using the magnifying glass above.
AA or NA or is where we can get sponsors. Look that up as well.
Everything is new and scary for you at the moment but if you read as much as you can, it’s almost like arming yourself.
Stick around. A lot of people on here with good advice and experience.

Welcome Brandella. If in person meetings are open in your area, google AA or NA local meetings. Let them know you’re looking for a sponsor when you attend your first meeting.
If in person meetings are not open, sponsors are available on an app called the 12 step toolkit. Or you can attend meetings on intherooms.com and ask for a sponsor during a meeting.
