Just Short Of Two Years

It has been over a year and a half since I last posted . This place saved me when I first got clean .I know there is no one who rembers me but I thought I would stop in and let those who are struggling know it is possible to live a clean life . If I can stay clean and sober for two years , anyone can .

This board helped me get through the first few months . After I got back to my program , I realized this was not the healthiest place for me to be .Once I got past the worst of my own withdrawals , I could see the negativity between other board members . Myself included . When I recognized I was taking sides in several fights , I felt it was time to move on . That decision may very well have been the reason I have what little time I have .

I see some familiar people who are still posting . I pray for all you guys . Thanks for leading me back to a clean and sober life. Wthout all of you I would never had come this far. When I needed all of you , you were there . For that I will be eternally grateful . Rob
Congrats Rob

I have my two years on Sunday. It looks like we got the message at the same time.

I agree there are a lot of people here that really help those in need.

Hello Bobbie,

You don't know me but I wanted to say congratulations. You are proof that it can be done!

I have 9 months pill free. This board really helped me. The people here were my lifeline. Sadly I have chosen to stay away for the same reasons as you. I don't feel safe here anymore.

Please don't get me wrong . I think this is a great place in early recovery . I was going through horrific withdrawals and John Dee along with other people kept encouraging me to just hang on . Left to my own devices , I would never had made it without their help .

Recovery for me comes in stages . It was time for me to move on .My sponser checked out this forum and felt that it was great for the first couple of months in my recovery but it was time to seek out people who had several years of being clean and sober rather than weeks or days . This is a wonderful place to begin our journey .

I remember you Hawk . You are the Oklahoma fan . I am thrilled to see you doing well . Carol , if you read this I would love to know how you are doing . If anyone has heard from Redd , send her my best. Rob
