I’m Tina and I’m sober for 1 day and I tried many times to quit on my own and it didn’t help. I’m here due to binge drinking and ended up in hospitals or somewhere else. I needed a change and get my life back together again. I hate being sick, hanging, feeling like crap and wasting my days away. I don’t know what to expect on this journey and new chapter in life. But dealing with today I wanted a drink so bad and I found a AA meeting in my area and went. I was so scared and now that I went I’m proud to go and got my first 24 hour chip. Which means a lot to me and made me feel strong for now. I’m taking baby steps for now but I know it’s not gonna be easy.

You made the right choice coming here, there’s tons of stories of heartbreak and encouragement on here to help you stay on the right path. I’m new but so far, checking in everyday has really helped I hope it helps you too! Stay strong and remember you’re not alone in this!

Welcome Tina!! Congrats on taking the first steps to getting sober. Day 2 for me, I’m also a binge drinker so I can totally relate there. One day at a time.
