Hi, I discovered this site about two weeks ago. I am so grateful for it, I have made 3 face to face meetings it feels good to concentrate on me for a change. My a even commented that I seem relaxed and he has no idea that I made the meetings. He's been up to his usual stuff and I feel hopeful for the first time in a very long time. Lil.

Hi Lil - glad youre going to F2F. I fought them in the beginning. However I have found a Sat morn meeting which fits my schedule better and Ive started to share.


Im also feeling more relaxed. Sure the stinkin thinkin comes back once in a while but for the most part the focus is back on me.

It's amazing how much better you can feel just be being around non judgmental people in similiar situations.


Then you start to look at yourself and how YOU can do things differently and handle things better, which I personally enjoy.


I can only imagine how exponentially better that will be once I get a sponser and reallly work the steps.


Glad you found us.


Bob

Great stuff Lil.... and here's wishing that the "hopefullness" you are feeling, is tied to YOU, and your recovery, and less on him....  All good things...


One of my favorite sayings:  "he's either gonna drink, or he won't..... what are YOU gonna do?"


Well done, for taking care of you, and welcome aboard here!


Tom
