Hello Dave and welcome. Sober 6 years here, but just about to go through the steps again with my sponsor as I need a reset. We can walk that path together! Congrats on your amazing sober time!

What would you say to someone devastated by alcohol dependency who was contemplating giving up (practicalities aside), how would you show them the light on the other side? #SoberSky #RecoveryPosse

I think I thought that once I stopped drinking that would be all the change I needed. Six years and Iโ€™m starting to understand that was just the start. I wonder if Iโ€™ve changed at all in fact. Thanks for sharing with me.

Thank you for your honesty. I trying to have faith in other people and to play a long gameโ€ฆ something I am NOT good at. I want it now, always. And when I get it I want it bigger and better! Sigh. ๐Ÿ˜ฎโ€๐Ÿ’จ

Hey. Yes, such big change. I forget how big. Thatโ€™s why helping others is so important, to remember I guess. That and not to focus on me, me, meโ€ฆ.

Glad youโ€™re here. Thanks for sharing with me. X

Change. Iโ€™m sceptical that I can change, no matter what I do. Tell me your change stories, I need to hear them today. #SoberSky #RecoverPosse #Recovery
