Looking for support/ newcomer
Permalink  
 


Hello everyone..My name is Michelle, and I am looking for support in recovery.  I have 32 days today and I am sooooo greatful to be back!  Yes, I have had time before. I had a few years a few times over the last 20 years of my life, but I still thought I was different!  ( wrong !!! )  I just had that false pride and fear keeping me from opening up to other people..I am now willing to go to any lengths to get and stay sober and clean, but I do need help and encouragement..I have chosen to go to a woman's recovery house and that is a huge step for me!  Living w/ other women is already difficult, but I knew my disease would kill me if I continued to isolate.. So, I am reaching out for all of you to help me..The " WE " of the program...Please know I would be sincerly grateful for any and all words of wisdom and encouragement as I travel this journey of recovery..Thanks a million..Michelle a.k.a. seeking sanity

Hey  michelle you said a lot


Jump back into the meetings.  I had a relapse that lasted 7 years.  It was hard and humbling to walk back in. Meetings  meetings and more meetings  I found it a lot harder this time around.  For me there was days of 2 and even 3 meetings. The promises will come true.  sometimes quick and sometimes sloooow.  But I have no doubt they will.


good luck


hang in there


Rick
