Hi Marina and all other members of this group.
I am John, a recovering alcoholic with a little bit of sobriety behind me now. I have some difficulty getting to AA meetings as I spend a lot of time at home looking after my partner who has ME. So, I thought I would join this group and contribute what I can, when I can.
Kind regards
John

Hi there,
I am Brian, and i am in recovery from alcohol dependency / addiction after being given 6 - 12 months life expectency back in March 2005 if i continued to drink.
I went into alcohol detox on 30th June 2005 and have not had any alcohol since, which is now over 10 x years.
I now support others struggling and wishing to stop drinking alcohol, as well as support those who are in recovery and struggling with day to day challenges.
I have now set up a small charity to help others

Hi all, I hope it's ok that I comment on this now. I've been an alcoholic for several decades now and i've been through quite a few periods of sobriety only to fall off the wagon again. I went through a programme around 8 years ago that really helped and I've been sober ever since, which is a good thing because I also have psoriatic arthritis and the drinking was terrible for inflammation. Sometimes I wonder if my addiction brought on the PA.
