I'm a newcomer here and I realize that I really need recovery to help heal me. I have heard "outreach" mentioned on phone meetings and was hoping I could do it on here as well, by putting myself out there in a moment of need. My past pains and fears of abandonment and loss have been triggered in my current relationship with a man who has over a decade of sobriety. I was hoping by putting myself out here I could begin communication, which I know is vital in this program. I need to move past old fears and be a fully thriving human being. I need to move on and let go of these old deep pains and heal from emotional wounds. I have spent a year getting past trauma and emotional pain and desperately do not want to backtrack. I want to avoid becoming deeply depressed, isolating or losing my love over lifetime long fears holding me back.
My name is Sally and if anyone has time to talk, or any advice, it would be very greatly appreciated.
