Thank you!

I just want to take a brief moment to say how grateful I am for everyone who has introduced themselves, checked up on me and continue to support me. You all are great! Please know, I am not ignoring anyone's messages at any time. I am actually receiving a lot of messages and not on social media a whole lot. I am trying my best to find balance. I truly am grateful for everyone and for being a part of this community. I am especially grateful for the recommendations and kind words; I have managed to stay sober thus far. It seems at this point every day is getting just a little easier. I don't feel alone in this anymore. I'm excited to say I'm finding myself in more of my "happy places" lately bc I'm learning to make time for myself. I'm also learning how to just RELAX and take it easy. Again, thank you to all of you who have shared and offered support! :blush:

Sorry. Read your profile. Great honesty. Best way to be in sobriety always. Just one thing stood out for me tho. A boyfriend who enjoys his drink and you trying to not drink? Must be hard. Hope you find a balance and stay strong. Are you plugged into any type of local support program of recovery yet? Anyway, good luck in this new life. Sounds like it’s been rough.

No local recovery program as of yet. I have a positive mindset so far and have been making progress with gaining understanding on my boyfriend's behalf. It seems like he's pulled back in his drinking habits over the last couple weeks so far which has helped. This journey started out tough a year ago but this second attempt has been different in a positive way so far.

Well that’s good being positive. Zoom meetings maybe? Keep hanging in there.

So happy you’re here
