Glad you're looking into NA. NA is my aftercare program of choice and it really works well for me; it's saved my life. You can't go wrong by surrounding yourself in the atmosphere of recovery. In our basic text it tells us that the recovering addict is our addiction's worst enemy. Please let's us know how your first meeting goes!

Glad your back on the Wagon again. And meetings save me. Take time to think about why you relaped. Meetings are a great resource. In the beginning I thought meetings were for loosers. Its the opposite. You deserve the meetings. think of meetings as a positive experience....its self investing.  Meetings can be scary until you get thru the door. When I first came back from rehab I thought I didnt need them...well I was wrong. Then I had another relapse....went back to rehab and attended meetings....I've been clean one year and three months. Now I look forward to them. Please ask me anything about them....call the hotline....im positive that when you reach out youll be amazed and get a ride. Dont use anymore excuses.....

That's the ticket!  One day, one week, one month. I know its miserable but honestly like everything else it goes pretty fast. Just keep going one goal at a time!

If you call the NA hotline they may have someone who will pick you up. It's worth the call.

You are seriously rockin this!  Do you have the info on location and times of the meetings? Never too soon to plan. I know you want to wait for your wheels but maybe you could hike it over there when the weather warms up. Keep going my friend Im waiting for that 30 day post!
