I need some guidance and support

I need some guidance and support to get and stay sober. I think having a place to interact with others struggling like me or that have gotten through the darkness would be very beneficial and would help hold me accountable.

Hi my name is Natalie and I would like to suggest some online meetings, the website www.InTheRoom.com for support and also Google A.A/N.A meetings in your area or Zoom meetings are great! One day at a tim. Hang in there, your not alone. It gets better

Hey Kevin. as others suggested, your best bet is to link up with a sober community that holds regular recovery meetings that you can attend. There are a ton of options out there. Here’s a link that might help (these are non-aa options since I see someone already mentioned aa below) https://www.alcohol.org/alcoholics-anonymous/alternatives-to-the-aa-approach/

Yeah, I give others advice so well but when you are fighting the battle and all you can think is that… it hasn't gotten terrible yet! That's so scary. Ugh

I still haven't reached out to support groups yet which I know is a mistake. I fell off during the week but have been good the past two days. I started another audio book for my drive to and from work (40 min one way) because that is when my thoughts race the most and I am the most susceptible to getting a drink. Hope everyone is well!

Hey Kevin! How’s it going? If you don’t mind me asking, what’s keeping you from taking action with the support groups?

Www.intherooms.com is also a great place to go for support.

The meetings are great and very frequent.
