It does seem ok so far. As I’m in the UK I’m not sure about insurance but it is free for me. I’ve been a few times and been assessed and now have to see their doctor on Wednesday. There are different sessions every day I can go to from “smart” groups which are a bit like AA or women only or helping with looking for work etc. I’ll let you know how the one tomorrow goes

Thank you so much
Scott is right, we have all been there, so try not to be too hard on yourself. You are back here and it sounds like working some new stuff into your recovery. Hopefully learning and making baby steps…finding what works for you. Don’t give up.

Hey @Willow! Am I ever glad to see you in here again. Please don’t feel embarrassed…I doubt there is a single person in here who was able to stop drinking the first day they decided to do it. I’m just so happy to see you post again, and I think it is great that you are going to a meeting. And you said hello here, which is awesome. Please keep checking in with your successes and your struggles. We’ve all been there. But I promise you - life sober is better than you can even imagine. You will get there❤️!!!

Hi today’s meeting went well, it was a women only group for an hour and a half talking about anything we wanted to. Some very serious things to light hearted chit chat, it felt good. The woman who took the group was brilliant and made me feel comfortable along with the other ladies in there, I will definitely go again. I’m leaving my job tomorrow after 10 years a decision that I believe to be the right one. I need a new start.

Hey…I know I’ve been kind of sporadically MIA this past month. Between relationship issues, work, and getting a head start on one of my classes for the fall (10 in total, 7 in person, 3 online, one is available to start now as a self paced class) I’ve been dealing with a lot of stress, anxiety, and just emotional ups and downs.
Thank you for checking on me, it’s good to know that people still care…I’m just having a rough time.

Day by day girl. A lot of us are thinking of you. It sounds like some stress relief and self care is on order…exercise? Long walk,? Yoga? Meditation? Yelling therapy? Hot bath? Long cry?

Has anyone heard from Kater - maybe on another social media platform? Her id (@Kater) seems to be removed from this site.
