Alcoholism Support Group

Alcoholism is the continued consumption of alcoholic beverages, even when it is negatively affecting your health, work, relationships and life. If you think alcohol is causing you to lose control, it's time to seek help. Our group is a safe place to vent, check in, get back up if you fall, and reach sobriety.

I have sat here for the past hour reading the stories of despair, hope & support. Too often, I have no words to add, but will continue to learn.

We can do this. Publicly, privately, start, restart, continue, commit.

Be Well, Get Better Not Biiter & Do Good Work.

2016 will be our breakout year.

I FEEL it........this will be the year that I kick ASS.
Tired of sitting around pissing and moaning about the things I don't like about my life - 2016 is all about the CHANGING IT:))))

Happy New Year, BurningMan!!!

Starting a new year is a good motivator to kick bad habits. I read that if you have a whole bunch of new year's resolutions, you're less likely to accomplish any of them and it's best to have no more than three.
Well who knows but making sobriety the most important goal every day has always kept me sober. Forgetting this is my highest priority is when I slip.
Every slip up, no matter how "small", is unacceptable this year :).
Happy sober new year!

there are no slips they are Planned events....someone planned drinking again....instead of doing what it takes to stay sober they planned the drink by not doing those things anymore and eventually they do drink.....not a slip...planning by omission of the routine that keeps us sober....

Happiness doesn't depend upon who you are or what you have; it solely relies on what you think.

The trick I found was to be bold in recovery without being too sure of yourself. A small bit of humility will keep you in touch with real life.

But my default is to come up over the top and say
I'm going to knock this year out of the park CMon!
