Hello guys and gals,
I am a newly recovering alcoholic, (15 days sober today) and something I have noticed about the AA meetings I have been attending in my area is that there is a significant lack of young people, our age that are there. Now whether this is because young people are too scared, shy, or don't know they need help, who knows, but I felt I could try and do something about it. Try and put myself out there, for lack of a better term, to help people see and understand what I am going through in order to help them maybe see that they aren't alone. I decided to start a blog documenting my feelings, and experiences in my stages of recovery. It IS appropriate, and in no way crude, crass, or anything of the sort. It is merely for those that want to see they are not alone in the "new to recovery" stage.
Essentially, and this isn't a shout out for "followers" or "pity" or all that jazz. Firstly, it helps me, it makes me feel as though I am helping others, if you don't want to read it, no problem, but I know how it feels to feel alone, I still feel that way, but this is a way I can try to help others who need it.
Anyhow the blog is on Tumblr and can be found at the link below.

Feel free to check it out, and I hope it will help you as much as it is helping me.
