This month, we had many positive comments as usual. These often are great reminders of what it was like before we got sober as well as how much is at risk. Thanks to all the Steppers who sent them in and please, anytime you get a good comment from a caller, please call them out to us (and note, if you will in the e-mail,  that they’re  ”Good Comments” so they don’t get lost in the shuffle):

– Thanks so much for contacting me. I received a DUI a couple years ago. I didn’t handle it correctly. Today I’m trying to join an aa meeting on line.

– Thank you very much for your detailed and informative response.  I very much appreciate it.  I will most certainly go through some of the exercises provided and get back to you or follow the guidance to join more meetings.  Thank  you again and I hope you have a great weekend.

-It depends, realistically I don’t drink everyday, but when I do I seem to go overboard and make bad decisions. As of the last 6 months I have been drinking more as I have come into a new role as a lead plumber, at a FIFO housing renovations operation, and I have found myself drinking to cope with the stress. I would like to break this habit entirely, I gym regularly but that still hasn’t been able to fill the void, which is stresses of life and hope that I can find solace in a group of people that are trying to achieve the same things in life as me. As you have said, I’m sick and tired of being sick and tired!

-I wanted to thank you so much for your message: I felt hopeful for the first time in a long time when I read it. I will look at online meetings and join. Thank you again: the biggest thing for me is the shamble and isolation of drinking and reaching out has helped me. Congratulations on your recovery. I have the deepest respect

Thank you, for the prompt response and encouragement and for sharing your struggles.  I am happy for you. I will try to find a meeting in my time zone via Zoom and the links you shared.

– Thank you for responding.   I found an online meeting I attended at 6pm.  The ladies were very nice and got me information on an in person meeting near me.

– Thanks for encouraging me, I really appreciate 

– Thank you so much. Your words are motivating and inspirational to read. I have woken up today with a new sense of hope, clean slate. Im so grateful for your words it has an inpired to atleast not pick up a drink today and attend a meeting.

-Ty for responding quickly..I think I will try the zoom meeting

– Thank you so much for reaching out and sharing 

– Thank you for your story and the warm welcome.  I’m on 12 days of alcohol of not a drop and have jumped on a couple of meetings.  Feeling great!
