Hello, I am new, checking in...

Postby maxwell houser » Sun Jul 25, 2010 2:07 pm

Hi everyone,

My name is Glen and i'm an alcoholic. I'm sober 108 days today, glad to have just discovered this forum! I have a sponsor and try to go to a meeting every day. I'm working the steps, have a home group and a commitment and I love AA. I have a hard time with shyness and sharing at meetings, I ask for help & am working on it but this forum is perfect for me as I can surely type! :)

Just wanted to check in and introduce myself. I hope to be of service in some way...

thanks!
Glen

Hi Glen,

It's great to have you on the forum; and thanks for the offer of service. Stick around and I'm sure you'll end up with a job!

And in the meantime, tell us where in the World you're from; we're quite a mixed bag here.

Regards,

Ken, an alkie from the UK

Welcome, Glen, great reasons to be here. I am practically paralyzed when I try to have a conversation with someone, but here in the forums they can't get me to shut up :-)

Hope to catch your typing soon,

Ann

Hello, Glen.
William here, alcoholic.


Just wanted to check in and introduce myself. I hope to be of service in some way...


Just by being here and sharing your experience, strength and hope, Glen, you are of service to this alcoholic.
Congratulations of three months plus. That milestone helps me remember what it used to be like in early sobriety.
Looking forward to reading more about your journey.
Best wishes.
The path is the goal.
