New and hopeful

I attended my first meeting last night in person with the accompaniment of a close friend, and attended a zoom meeting tonight, and I have been sober for a little over 24 hours for the first time in probably 13 years. I am so ready for this new part of my life. I listened to the entire Big Book today on audio book and I can’t remember the last time I felt so passionate about anything. Thanks for having me everyone.

I’m you feel that you are losing momentum or are struggling, then please look up Annie Grace. I have been sober for 15 months thanks to her. She has a book called This Naked Mind which is really good!!! I also read her 30 Day Alcohol Experiment. I borrowed them both for free from the library. She also has videos on YouTube where she answers reader’s questions. Get her app which is also free. It’s called This Naked Mind Companion App. She also has a podcast …. She’s the BEST!!!! Congratulations & good luck!!!

Good for you, we all have a day one :one:! There is so much to keep you connected. I used a lot of YouTube videos and podcasts in my early months to keep me on that path. Everything is going to change but remember we all have today and that’s it to grow and seek. It’s a simple program but not always an easy program but better days are ahead if you are truly ready to embrace sobriety.

Congratulations!
