I am new to this app, but I really appreciate the posts and advice. I am in a place where I lean on drinking to manage stress. I don't want to quit, but I know I have to for my health. I've taken up a new hobby and I have books to read. And so the battle begins. Thank you all again!

Marty, I just now joined. I am new as well and appreciate being in a forum of people who really know how I feel. No one around me understands alcoholics. We all need help

Good to meet you virtually, Pam! I have the same problem. No one to talk to who really understands. Or who won't be judgemental. I have tried to beat this on my own, but I know I need help. The cravings have gotten bad, as has the drink count. Time for a reset.

There are a lot of free online events that look good. I think I will try a few. I am hoping to avoid meetings...not ready for that yet.
I noticed them. I am going to try to do some as well
Good for you!! We're here for you....This app is a great resource. This day in age social media connection is big and I'm not into Instagram and all those but there's just something about this app and being able to get the support you need that is SO cool! You really feel supported, just by reading peoples posts and stories you know you are NEVER on their journey alone!!!
