Hello everyone! Looking for new sober friends to connect with. I am a recovering addict/alcoholic with a little over 3 weeks clean. Just had a beautiful baby boy.. so not only has that been consuming my time but, that’s been my motivation to strive to be a better me each and every day. I don’t want him to suffer in the ways that I have and I refuse to be “sick” in his presence. I had a using acquaintance try to trip me up the other day but I managed to say “No” and I felt GREAT after declining the offer… empowered even. My life is in a rut right now and it’s hard to see the surface, but my wife and son are there.. reflections of light in the dark.. guiding me through what I consider to be my wilderness. I want to expand my support as well as extend support as well. Anyways… Anyone out there looking for another sober friend??
You are doing amazing! If no one has told you that lately. I just did. And now, if anyone with more than 24hrs is making it that is progress, not perfection. You just keep looking at that beautiful boy minute by minute, hour by hour and tell yourself you are doing this 
and don’t let anyone get in the way of your dreams and desires to that pink cloud we all talk about. It’s right there, in your arms nightly! God bless you. 
Thanks Sassy!! I’m going to keep on fighting for what I love. Nothing in this world is worth giving up my sobriety. I hope that you are winning against any struggle you may be having too. My heart goes out to you girl.
I have 12yrs, I have been there a time or two, but I am here if you ever need to reach out. I’m a mama and a Grammy..and rehabilitation counselor by trade.
Thank you so very much. I really appreciate it. What an accomplishment!! 12 years is something to marvel over. My longest stent was 4 years and I fell on my face and never got back up until now. I’ve been using drugs for about 25 years and enough is enough. I was smoking meth, crack, and fentanyl. I started smoking crack when I was 17 and I was hooked ever since. The rest was just “icing” on the “cake”. Thank you for your support and I want you to know that even though I’m a “newcomer” again I too am here if you need anything at all. Bless your heart!
