New here and I’m excited and nervous

I’m excited to finally start this journey. I’ve been thinking about it for quite some time. I’m only day 3 and so far I feel good. Just a lot of feelings of guilt from my drinking.

Welcome to Talking Sober and welcome to your sobriety Jacqueline! Great place to find (and give) support.
Congrats on day 3. It’s one day at a time for all of us. With that in my mind all we have to do is stay sober today. And we all can do that. Together. Wishing you all success in your sober journey lady.

Welcome. I am happy that you found your way here, and I hope you will stay.

I think we all have had feelings of guilt regarding our relationship with alcohol. I know I did. Realizing that my drinking was not only harmful to me but to those who matter to me, was a big step in my journey. Staying sober, healing mind, body, and spirit demonstrated to those I’d harmed that I was sorry. It made forgiveness possible.

Forgiveness is the destroyer of guilt.

Sobriety feed me of alcohol. Forgiveness freed me of guilt. Just a few good reasons to never drink again.
