      Welcome peaceseeker! Congrats on 5 days of sobriety!! I'm new to MWO and am on Day 6. I don't think I would have made it past day 1 with MWO. These are the things I find most helpful so far: 1) Posting my Alcohol Free (AF) Days on Newbies Nest Roll Call every morning. This gives me a strong sense of accomplishment. 2) Reading the posts on Newbies Nest. The struggles and victories of my fellow fledglings keeps me focused and motivated. Also, senior members post words of encouragement and wisdom. 3) Posting my experiences on Newbies Nest. Whatever I'm experiencing -- good & bad, up & down -- it is therapeutic for me to write it out. I've learned a lot about alcoholism and how to overcome it in less than a week!! :welcome:

              Welcome from another newbie!

              Hi Peace - I am 3 days AF and today is my first time posting! Welcome and congrats on 5 days! I read and read through a lot of this wonderful site for 3 days before posting. I'm pretty sure the stories and encouragement made it that much easier to make it through the weekend without drinking!! Every night I have gone to bed not drinking has felt REALLY good! The morning... Even better! It will be the socializing that will be hard for me. We live in a party town....

                Welcome!!! Keep on keeping on
                If drinking is interfering with your work, you're probably a heavy drinker. If work is interfering with your drinking, you're probably an alcoholic.
