Chronic relapser here checking in to gratefully say Hi! Putting alcohol down is single handedly the hardest thing to which I have to commit. After almost three years of never making it passed pay day and trying to manage my life with alcohol any possible way I could think of—without the last ditch effort of giving it up. I have finally hit 10 days sober.
I am very grateful for this community that helped me bring to light the (literal) toxic relationship and behaviors I have with alcohol. Thank you, and I am happy/excited/anxious to begin my recovery and this new life.
