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 just got a message for DS like I'm sure many if you did stating there will be no more Chat. I understand what Goggle has done but for DS not to look for alternative is a damn shame. Many people come here looking for a solution to there problem and chatting with these individuals letting them know on one on one conversations sharing are E,S.&H is huge. Since DS was bought out the new owners have done nothing but make this site worse like terrible servers issues, not showing correctly who is online among other things. Many people have left or don't come here often like myself after joining back in 07. They mentioned they don't have the resources to find another product, I don't know about you but I see more payed ads now then ever before. If anyone know of or use another site that they like please post it here to let me and others know.
Peace be the journey..

Subject: Meebo Chat
Hi Everyone,
We have some important news regarding chat on DailyStrength. Our chat
feature is provided by Google's Meebo Bar, and Google has decided to
retire the Meebo bar, effective 06/06/2013. On or around May 28th We
will be removing the Meebo bar from DailyStrength.
We have decided that at this point in time we are not going to locate an
alternative chat product. Unfortunately, we simply do not have the
resources to implant such a product.
While members will no longer be able to chat one-on-one with each other
in real time by using the "chat" feature, everyone WILL still be able to
send each other private messages, give hugs, post discussions and utilize
all of the other features on DS.
We hope everyone is having a wonderful spring!

check out that smoke ring. It tasted really good. I smothered it with Maulls BBQ sauce which is Local to St. Louis and one of the best I ever had.....

I was recently separated from my wife of 33 years and it's complicated. Anyway I rented a room about 15 minutes away and I see my kids about once a week. I see the people who own the house I live in once in a while but other than that I stay in my room where I do my cooking, wash dishes in the shower, read, color, and sleep. I get out at least once a day. I grocery shop and I attend 2 meetings...
Good things can be abused and turned into bad for some people.
I know many lonely people here whose lives were immediately enriched at being able to talk to others who shared similar circumstances at some point in their lives. I am one.
I also know many who were saved from suicide because the instant messenging on meebo was the quickest way to reach out to them.
Meebo, if used responsibly can be extremely helpful to those suffering emotional pain. It's positive affects are immediately felt!
I will miss it very much!
