Hi Jonetrees
Well you sound pretty determined.
One thing I have found really works for me lately is the L-Glut under the tongue when a craving hits. You can buy it locally while you are waiting the order- powder form seems best.
Wishing you the best of luck.

Hello and Welcome Jones
I can relate to what you said about AA. I have had that same experience. I still go, but definitely put out my "anti-men" radar. Shame on them. They know that they are not supposed to hit on newcomers. You have your tools and we are here for you.

Hi Jonetrees,
They HIT on you at AA????? What??? Obviously I've never been - never thought it was my gig. MWO fits me just fine. But I would not have guessed it was more than about AL. The group that meets at our church is women only. Now I know why. In any event, good for you for being so determined to achieve/maintain your sobriety. Others have mentioned the AF Army, and there's also the ODAT thread. The nice thing about these kinds of threads is that they encourage a group to connect each day with whatever is on their mind - a change of pace from the "reaction" threads that seek to help a fellow member. Welcome - looking forward to hearing from you.
