Thank you for all information
Hey @Dazercat thank you

- IL to LA, back to IL, to CA, and back to IL is all kid/teen stuff and I had no choice in the matter(s)
- I originally moved to Portland, OR in 1994,
- did the “addiction geography change” to:
- Albuquerque, NM,
- did zero recovery and not-so-shockingly:
relapsed, - did another “addiction geography change” to:
- my mom’s (back in Illinois [thinking, suuuurely that would do the trick
]),
- again: did zero recovery and not-so-shockingly (you guessed it): relapsed,
- did another-another “addiction geography change” back to:
- Portland, OR in 1998 (because everyone I used with back in '94-'95 was either dead or in prison so now, “for real”
I would stop drinking & using
) and have been back in Portland ever since.
- That said, I only FINALLY received that Gift of Desperation 624 days ago and:
- have been IN Recovery for 623 days!
Yeesh…I’m exhausted after alla that.

Oh it’s interesting I never thought to list places I lived in in order this way.
Born and raised in Maine, USA. Moved to Thailand then Cambodia. From there I moved to Turkey from there to Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Jordan then did a short stint in Afghanistan and Iran before ending back in Kyrgyzstan where I’ve been for about 10 years now.
Minnesota.
Just seeing where everyone is from, wouldn’t mind connecting with some near to me to reach out to when the urge kicks in.
Northern Illinois here.
I’m in Canada (don’t personally want to get more specific than that on public threads but Canada narrows it down at least a bit )
There’s an existing thread where you can join the discussion - lots of people from all over at that thread!
I am on san Diego ca
A village in Oxfordshire UK. The birth place of King Alfred of Wessex. And yes, he does have a traffic cone on his head some Sunday mornings.
I’m from Northumberland in the North East of England. Specifically, I wasn’t born (but grew up) in a town called Alnwick, known for the Alnwick Castle & Gardens, as well as Barter Books (used to be one of Europe’s biggest secondhand book shops - converted from the town’s old railway station which closed in the late 1960’s).
I now live in a small town called Amble which is situated about 10 miles southeast of Alnwick.
