(repaired I hope

We are group of men and women come together with a common purpose. To break the hold of alcohol and to recover our lives. This group offers a variety of ideas that can help an individual gain sobriety. There are many methods offered.

Though this group is not strictly Alcoholics Anonymous there are many active members of AA who are more than willing to share their recovery with you. The majority of discussion are based in but not limited to12 Step recovery.

For a more in depth understanding of AA and how it works your invited to look in to the sub group "aa Spoken Here" The folks there will be glad to explain the 12 Steps and how they work.

The Alcoholism Support Group currently lists 6314 members. As such there are many differing ideas and personalities. Sometimes they clash but please do not be dismayed. We are here for the same reason, to stay sober and help others get sober. My suggestion is to look for what works and file away the rest. Don't throw it out as you just may find you need it some day.

" Repairs successful! You do know what you're doing! hehe

I didn't write all this below for nuttin...(o;

Paste:

I try to respect everyone's path, though it's not easy to Not share what's working for me and keeping me alive and getting me well. I still try though, because I was one who didn't want to hear anyway but the 'easy' way. HA! My way was the hardest and going to kill me the fastest!

Glad I stuck around to hear ALL the options available! And I appreciate all of you! I learn much from many of you on different roads.

To those of you who are still unsure, get with it! ...whatever it is! because we don't know when another drink could be fatal...to us or others.

Keep your mind open so something will work for you! Believe you can overcome this! Just do something, before it robs you of your life any more than it already has!

One day at a time! That for sure is the one thing we will Always have in common! (o; "
