Hi, My name is Fi and I am an alcoholic
Permalink  
 


I walked into an AA meeting on the 18th February and it is by far the best decision I have ever made in my life. I drank 2 bottles of wine a day, while trying to work full time, care for my children and run a house! I have no idea how I carried it off. I wake up everyday and thank God I dont feel like rubbish. I have just finished a City In Guilds and I am about to complete my Portfolio today. I am very pround. I know I have a lot of work to do but I am so happy I have found the road to a better life and hopefully I will make lots of friends on here. I have a spondser and I am starting the 12 steps tomorrow!

Welcome, Fi. Congratulations on your 41 days of sobriety, and your willingness to start your steps with a sponsor. Willingness took me a while to come by in this program, once I found it, it has taken me a long way. Glad you're here, keep us posted on how you're doing.
