Support, belief in oneself, and changing lifestyle…took 24 years of being a drunk that wanted to quit to figure that out.

Are you in a support group? I didnt go to one for 90 days. Looking back I wish I would have. Those first 90 days was nothing more than me white knuckling sobriety…lucky I am a stubborn person.

It will be a good experience. I started shopping around at the 90 day point. Just recently settled down into one I feel comfortable with.

This place will help alot. But, for me, good old fashion face to face communication is best.

Likewise the majority of friends I’ve made in addiction are gone. It just seems I’m continually drawn to drinkers and those who use
