Welcome Chris.
Have a good read around here. This place has been a great place for me to get support in my sobriety. Addiction is too tough to go it alone. We are stronger in numbers. And we are all worth it.

Here are two good threads to start:

Welcome!
I’m new here too (Day 6).
I have overused alcohol for years. Many a time I’ve promised myself i will stop. I do two days max and then reward myself with alcohol.
I know its early days but this app and this community have changed everything. I’ve had a full weekend of commitments that could have easily included alcohol and I’ve said no every time.
Don’t get me wrong it’s been hard to get to this point. Anxiety, panic, night sweats. But I feel I’m turning a corner and every day sober feels better and better.
You can do this too!
Congratulations for starting to make a change. Everyone is here for you on your journey.

Amazing words thank you ! And well done yourself , I’m dreading the social side as everything literally used to involve alcohol - I’m going through everything you just mentioned right now but my determination is strong - thank you

Welcome Frankie,

My experiance was getting down on myself with relapses. Don’t get down on yourself when you do but then don’t give up and keep fighting for life without alcohol. The days without alcohol will get longer. You began to enjoy it and life in general is better all while being more rested and content. Have fun!
