New to this app but guess it peaked my intrest and need to know how to start my journey ig. How do i stay motivated? How do I deal with actually feeling my feelings that wont make me go back to my old ways. Tired of feeling weak..

Welcome Bree! Are you going to any AA meetings? Are you working the 12 steps with a sponsor?
Going to meetings, making sober friends in recovery and working the 12 steps with a sponsor helped me tremendously and was fun.

Never been to AA but to do that is it easier to go alone so you're more open, but more vulnerable? Or is it better to have someone there with you?
I would prefer to go alone so there's no restrictions on being yourself in order to please someone else's expectations of you..
You can download an app to tell you where there are AA meetings of your convenience in your area. Once you walk in, you'll have absolutely no problem with conversation. Some meetings are better than others but for the most part of it, most meetings are one big happy family! you'll see! You'll love it
But I can't emphasize how imperative you're sobriety and the quality of it depends on face-to-face interaction early in sobriety.. any questions about anything feel free to hit me up
