That sounds like a good idea!
I LOVE this!! Thank you so much for this advice. I felt it in my soul. Especially because at this point I am taking this 1 day at a time.

Thank you so so much for that! And you’re right, I have already done it. I made that 1st step and this time I felt it was time to reach out to a community who knew how I feel and what I’m going through which is something I never did before because I felt SO ashamed of myself. I wasn’t that person and never wanted to be. But slowly…. It happened. So now it is time to change!!
Heck yeah you got this we're here to go through it with you

We just need to concentrate on staying clean/sober just for today! It's a 24-hour program. By staying in the day and taking care of today we eventually accumulate years.

It was difficult to get my head around this concept at first. At times it seemed stupid, but we really only do live "a day at a time.". If you ever get the desire to use, then please reach out to someone in recovery. It's simple, but it works.

You're most welcome. All any of us have is just today. Cherish it and make it count for something. You don't have to change the world, cure cancer or end world hunger. You just have to wake up wanting to be a decent person. Not just to others. But to yourself. There'll be plenty of people out there trying to treat us poorly. So some days we gotta rely on ourselves be nice to us.

I am so glad to hear that because I thought that was the only way to get clean because that’s all everyone talks about. So I tried it and it was not for me AT ALL!
