I have been led here through the grace of God, I am sure. I am in the process of defining exactly what that/He/She looks like for me, and based on what I have been reading, that is a journey that takes a while. It has taken many years of trying to tell myself that I am not an addict for me to realize that I am an addict. I now realize that I am not the only addict in the world, and that I do not have to be alone as I journey into recovery. I am looking forward to working the steps, finding a sponsor, and living my life instead of self medicating my way through it. I am sure I will be looking to this board and the folks here to help me through this process.
Thanks to all who have welcomed me. Went to my 1st NA meeting today, and although small (5 total) they did the same. Welcomed me with open arms and no expectations. With the help of others, I know I can do this. Thanks again.
