2 years sober

Recovery
#1

My life was a complete and total disaster before I quit. I had to quit or I would die. I have liver disease at the age of 43.

My family was called in as the Dr’s didn’t think I’d make it the week. Yet here I am 3 years later. I died 3x before that and came back. It’s been a rough road. But no matter what I believe God has a plan for you. He brought me to the place I am now.

Did I lose a lot of “friends”? Sure. Did I have to change the places I went daily? Yes. Did I have to find something else to fill my time? Absolutely. Was it easy? Nope. Was it the absolute best thing I ever did? 100%

I’m here for an ear to listen, possibly help with the things I went through, whatever I can do. Yes I’m only 2 years sober, I’m not here to be a sponsor or tell you what to do. I just want to help anyone I can. Heck maybe you can even help me? :blush:

What a blessing your recovery is and such a blessing to others, like me, who just can’t stay sober. I sent you a friend request.

Congratulations, I'm grateful for you and your story/life. Don't cut yourself short. You have 2 years sober. That's BIG. You could have been gone. Now you have time and experiences new people and even people with a year and a half don't know about. Please keep sharing and listening. Remember there's Always More...to learn, to Experience, to enjoy..

Congratulations. I was diagnosed with Cirrhosis June 5,2020. Your story sounds just like mine. I was told that if I was to drink I would die. I also coded 3 times and had my family get called in. I will be 3 years sober on June 5. If you ever want to chat I am here.

Hello Amber. My name is Paul. Your the person I needed to talk to here. I was diagnosed with the same thing as you. On October 23, 2020 I was throwing up blood so when to ER and got admitted fell into coma. Well it’s a long story from there. I would like you to hear my story And I would love to hear yours. I could go on & on the torture I went through. I just requested you as friends. Paul.
