137 Days

I have such a hard time with this. I did not celebrate my last "anniversary" with this forum because I felt that I should have been further along. How silly is that? I expect a lot from myself because I am not a first-timer at this. I need to let that go, and I am working on that.

So, today I began talking with a new member who has deeply touched me. This person made me realize that I am no better, or not further along, nor no further behind. I am where I am and I am proud today to say it.

I love you guys. Everyday I come in here you remind where I am, where I was, and where I could be. Thank you all.

Please keep coming back. I need each and every one of you!!!!!!!!

I believe that one addict helping another is key for recovery. I can't do it alone.

That is from your profile. And it has changed my life.    It really is one of the best things that i will take from this forum.
