Hey there, comrades. Just checking in and seeing how everyone is doing. I've been away for a (loong) while and thought it would be a good time to look in on everyone.

As for me, I've had a few slip ups the past few months. However, I was able to get back into gear each time by just staying positive and not throwing in the towel despite tge relapses.

The past six months have been pretty difficult. I went to jail (yep, alcohol related), my RV burned down, I lost all the stuff I had in storage (all of my fiance's stuff, who passed away is gone >_< ) and got my first DUI (which led me back to revisiting my dedication to my recovery). Even through all of it I am still plugging away and making positive changes to shape a better future for myself.

So, how's life been for you guys?

Sorry about the loooong hiatus, guys. Been going through a lot in my life and kind of checked out for a fat minute. I'd love to keep this community going though as long as everyone is on board <3

Hello again everybody! I hope you've all been doing great in your sobriety. Sorry for the brief radio silence, jerboa logged me out of lemmygrad in mobile and I forgot my pass and just haven't had the chance to reset it with the chaos of the past month. That brings me to create this monthly check-in post. We are all busy and I think the daily is a bit excessive especially in such a tiny community such as ours so I've opted to have a main monthly thread that everybody can chat in about things that maybe don't warrant an entire thread.

So, with that said, how we all doing out there? Been doing pretty good myself. Just had 2 months on the 5th of February and am feeling great!

Remember: One Day at a Time, comrades! ;)

Hola everyone! How's the week treating you guys? ;)

How's everyone doing this week? Feel free to vent any concerns, frustrations, celebrations or achievements here ;)

Stupidly got a bottle a week ago. I'm having to medical detox in the hospital right now. I can't write much since I'm so sick but I'll keep you guys updated later. Stay strong comrades addiction is cunning and can sneak back up on you. Much love to you all, I'll post soon again.

Hey everyone, how goes it out there? I'm pounding away. Just celebrated 1 month sober. Just hitting meetings and staying honest. How is everbody else doing?

Top of the week to you chaps! Hope all is well. Once again, here is our weekly check-in thread for posting status updates, concerns and struggles we're all going through. Feel free to vent, lament, rejoice however you need, we're here for each other.

For myself, I'm on day 26 of no alcohol and I feel great! Been going to meetings and getting back involved in the community. Each day just is better than the next, a far cry from my days wasting away, crying into a whiskey bottle. I've really found a reinvigorated and renewed life. It's absolutely amazing. I still have moments of sadness and doubt but they've definitely become fewer and more managable. It's great to feel good about life and about myself again. I can't wait to see what this all feels like 6 months and especially a year in. I wish you all the same joy I've found, if you haven't found it yet then I pray very soon.

I thought it'd be helpful to have a weekly thread where we can recap our progress, struggles and concerns, or anything else that needn't a dedicated thread. Go ahead and get whatever you need to say off your chest and keep working at it, comrades!

Went to my homegroup meeting today and was asked by the guy who was going to chair if I wanted to. I said sure and lead the meeting today. It was great! I had planned on getting more involved, I just didn't think it'd be so soon. I felt a lot of joy in getting to take on an active role in other people's sobriety, not just my own.

At the end of the meeting the same fellow, Eric, became my sponsor officially. So now I have a sponsor! I'm so excited for the future! For anyobe still struggling just keep plugging away, even if you stumble, get back up and keep at it. It's noy always easy but it's doable to make a positive change in your life <3

I have struggled with my alcoholism for some time and finally was able to get sober. I'd like to pay it forward and decided to start /c/sobriety for ANY drug/alcohol addiction for those currently or afflicted in the past and ready to nurture and guide newcomers to sober living.

If that's you, please join and help me to grow a wonderful place in the fediverse for sober living. Thank you for the consideration and I look forward to seeing you in our community ;)
