Hello D! I'm new to the app also. I have only been on it for about 3 days or so. Just a random download after seeing an ad on Instagram. This an absolute judgment free zone from what I've noticed so far. A lot good advice floating around. Most of us have had to reset sober days. If we were perfect we would have no use for this app. What matters is you are here. In the app, and still very much in the physical world. Which you aren't dead and the fight continues.

You’ve taken another step in the right direction. Be strong, you can do it! Congratulations!
Hello D! Take it one day at a time!! We all struggle in the beginning, it gets easier, but there is always a struggle especially when stress and anxiety hit hard!! You can do it though!! There's a lot of support here!

At least it sounds like you’ve made the decision to stop. That’s the first battle. Good luck and reach out if you need encouragment. I enjoy the assignments on here.
It is a journey for us all! Each story, is so very unique as is the traveler. The 17th of this month will be 9 months sober for me, in my recovery! I made a willful commitment to live each moment fully present in reality. I realized that I no longer wanted to be the person I had been! That was a turning point for me. With each new day dawning I make sure I praise the opportunity to become who I want to be..... Free from the negativity that held me bound in addiction! My inspiration comes from wanting to fully reach my potential. I was bound for many years making excuses to use. But now I think of all the reasons not to use it! My resolve is clear, I changed my attitude! I hold myself accountable and that is important. I feel the momentum of being free from my previous patterns. I am empowered by wanting better for myself and my family. It took my acceptance that I believe in my higher self. It's confidence that I can confront every situation with a clear outlook! The serenity prayer, helped put things into perspective for me. I can have serenity and accept the things that I cannot change, courage to change what I can, and wisdom to know the difference! I say this prayer often to remind myself that my actions are my own! May your journey be blessed with success! Happy Travels!
I just joined yesterday. I’m enjoying it so far! I love that there’s so many people in recovery that can understand where I’ve been, where I’m at, and where I’m going!
