Keep your head up... one day at a time change people places and things I had to change everything and everyone even my family but as I'm sober and know I want to be sober I have started finding me ... you are not alone I pray for all addicts feel free to message back in drug court one of team members i.e one of the judges tells people struggling you can't dwell on yesterday or think and daydream about tomorrow we have to live in the present hope you have a good night don't beat yourself up it's not worth doing and wo t help

Thank you sierra, sure that's really kind of you. I just went to a meeting and just cried for most of it. It was good.. a reminder that I can't do this alone. I did walk into a meeting over 10 years ago.. Glad this app went on my feed.. It led to a meeting

Sacha don't ever give up!
You can do this.
This really is a simple program for complicated people.
All we have to do is want to change. Leave the rest to god. We have to have the willingness and an understanding that we are not in charge that he is. My ways didn't work so I had to allow him to show me the way.
Remember God died on the cross to forgive us of all our sins therefore we could have a better life.
I will pray for you and pray that God holds you in the palms of his hands keeps you close comfort to guide you lead you and carries you down a happy road of destiny. Have a wonderful and amazing Thanksgiving and happy holidays.

That's true I just have this minute just got the rest of the night.. Hopefully I can sleep so it passes. Thank you Andy
Yeah my will is terrible I can't rely on it. Yes I've felt His power before when I asked for help. I'll ask to help my just get thru tonight. Thank you for sharing
Sacha no need to for thanks.
That's why we are all here.
God made us addicts and alcoholics unique people.
No one understands us no one will get us unless they are like us. That's where we are a tight-knit group and very close. We are like family that are not related.
Yeah my surrogate family is support groups and I have to go back to meetings .. Recovery fam.

Don't be ashamed or discouraged. I admire you for being honest and transparent.
It took me 6 months from the time of the DUI arrest to the date of sobriety.
Just remember alcohol knows no boundaries. It's like fire, it is never enough and will take out anyone and everything in its path.
You can do this. I have confidence and faith in you. We ALL are here to help you and see to it that you succeed.
Let’s do another 24 hours!
