Good for you Stephanie! All of us have been in your shoes so you’re in a group of people who know what you’re going through. Welcome to the club 
Some of my fave threads around here:
Frequently asked questions about sobriety for newcomers
Checking in daily to maintain focus #41
(I use the checkin thread regularly but especially when I’m having that “addict voice” in my head - getting the words out of my head and onto the thread helps me see they’re separate from me, they’re not a part of me)
Foodies Unite #4 (trigger warning food) DON’T GO BACON MY HEART!
And so many more
Remember: you’re a good person and you deserve a safe, sober life where you feel good about yourself and what you’re doing. You can have that, and you will. One day at a time

Welcome! Having a sober network is paramount to sobriety! Stick around and be part of the community, even on bad days; especially on the bad days! I’ve tried sobriety on my own, didn’t work out so well, I’ve been coming here for over 1,200 days and have over 1,300 days of sobriety, no coincidence!
