Recently found this site. Happy to be here. Tend to be a bit of a loner, but realize that I need support to walk away from the bottle. Been addicted for five years, and have lost so much. Determined to make 2013 better. I need to become familiar with MWO. Looking for daily accountability, maybe? I am amazed by all of you!! :new:

Welcome Tess, you are right. This is a great place you've found for support and accountability. Let's really kick off 2013 with a huge dose of SOBRIETY. We all have fallen; I'm on my 156th Day 2 but who's counting. This is NOT a game for me; don't take me wrong. I, genuinely want this to be it. Wanting is not enough (I've been reminded by the coaches here). We have to have a plan. So read, read, read and don't be shy to join in conversations. Everyone's opinion counts.Tipplerette
I do this for my children, my grandchildren, my health, my peace of mind, and mostly for the opportunity to learn to live with my true, unfiltered, clear-headed, vulnerable self.

"Three Dog Night" takes me back to a more innocent time. No alcohol. Yes, I need to read much to understand how to navigate this site. First goal is to live without alcohol. Next goal is to help others live without alcohol. Happy New Year to Every One!!!Tess in The Nest ~ Sober since January 1, 2013

I don't feel amazing but thank you!!! I am trying not to look at it as a battle but a gift of a chance to live my life a better,happier way. it has really helped me to change my mindset so far... I expect it to get tougher but I'm ready and determined. I've been noticing that people with long term success really focus on the positive rather than what they are giving up. we can do it too!Tess-2;1435460 wrote: See what I mean, Belles, you are amazing - like the others.
