Any recommendations for nonprofits who support sobriety? I’m 17 months sober and I’ve been looking to engage with an organization who does good community work in the space. I know there are a ton out there but I would love suggestions based on personal experiences.

14 days alcohol free!! Naltrexone plus therapy is what finally made it click into place. it was easy to drive by gas stations without stopping for that tall boy. Had my first real trigger though yesterday when I was stuck in the car with the kids fighting in the back. Didn’t give in but I seriously felt like I needed it. Analyzing the trigger I see its tied back to getting lectured in the car as a kid and feeling trapped and withdrawing. So pleased I’m able to make this progress.

Three mondays ago I woke up so hung over dreading the workday ahead. On calls I could barely form sentences. At lunch I lay down for an hour but couldn't sleep. That night I decided not to drink, not typical, usually nothing stops me. The next two nights I didn't drink. Couldn't sleep those nights at all (despite advil pm and melatonin), usually fell asleep at 5am for the last 2 hous before wake up. I exercise regularly following Les Mills On Demand, and someone mentioned, cont. In comments

Question. How many people here actively voice they are in recovery at work events to explain why they don’t drink as opposed to just declining the drink? Why or why not?

Stopped drinking a year ago after a particularly rough period. Lately I’ve been having thoughts and considerations around starting again. I think my friend circle has changed a lot so I wouldn’t fall into that crazy party lifestyle. Has anyone stopped then started again successfully? I never drunk THAT much but it was impacting my life (sending stupid messages I shouldn’t have been sending) and getting blackout occasionally. I do think it was having a negative impact on my life
