Hi, I’m Jeremy. I’m 30 years old and been an alcoholic for around 15 years. I come from a family of generational alcoholics I’m hoping to break the cycle and show my true strength I’m usually very introverted but I will do my best to share my journey over time.
Welcome Jeremy, you’re in the right place here Lots of us have been exactly where you are. I was in my early 30s when I started my sober journey too.
The gratitude thread is one of my faves (Daily Gratitude, The Air Of Recovery #8 🪷) and I found the groups, books and podcasts on this thread helpful too: Resources for our recovery

Hi Jeremy, you already broke the cycle, you just done something big… and I promise you its gonna be interesting to be sober… and this place and people here are literally saving me every day, my fingers crossed for you xxx
Welcome Jeremy!! Getting sober was the best gift I have given myself!! Hope to see you around!!
Thank you all so much for the kind words, it’s truly appreciated. Today’s been rough but I’m still hopeful I can kick this addiction
Welcome aboard! @JeremyW
Thank you!
I know it sounds cliché but you just take it one day at a time. Worry about making it until bed tonight sober . Then worry about tomorrow when it arrives . You can do it!
Makes sense for sure! Only complaint I have so far is my anxiety is bad today lol but I will be okay

Welcome, Jeremy! You can do this!
You are making a great decision. Alcohol is your ticket to a miserable life and an early grave. I think you as a person are worth more than that.
