Hi Chantay, welcome back, glad to hear you are turning it around. Remember it is a journey, and the best journeys do not always go straight from A to B to C to D...they wind around over to D and G and down to Y and back to D and over to S and maybe revisit B and on to Z at some point. Don't beat yourself up---that ship has sailed and it ain't coming back, so enjoy your journey. If you are looking for a support group, some of us are still meeting at 6 PM the 3rd Thursaday of the month North of the River at a church on Vivian road. We had 19 participants last night! Still a huge need for people to get together at night after work and give and recieve support from others on the same journey.

Yea! I know how excited you must be to finally have a date!!! Welcome to the group...Lisa

I can't make it tonight at SMMC because I am working. But I will be at the party in Dec. for sure. Jeanette: sorry to hear about your brother. Things are progressing rapidly. If you need anything, let me know. Last night's group was small, but good. Talked about how to get through the good and difficult aspects of the holidays. It was helpful.
