For those of you interested in a 12 step group, based on the 12 principles of AA, but with Christ as the center, we meet every Friday night at 7:00 pm Goodwill Church in Montgomery NY. For other locations check out their website www.celebraterecovery.com. I dont know what I would do without this group!

Hi, My name is Julie and I'm an alcoholic in recovery. I was banded 3 years ago June. When I got sober in January I had some fill taken out. I have gained 30 lbs. The folks I have talked to in AA say that is quite common as we intake more sugar. I was sober 4 months and in May relapsed. It's been a struggle and I keep going in and out of the rooms of AA hoping to finally get it. Can you please share your story of recovery with me. I know cross-addiction is very common and when we don't have food to comfort us we can sometimes go into other areas of addiction. I don't want those people to answer me like "get a f* clue don't drink". I live in a world that is filled with both joy and isolation at the same time. AA friends always welcome me back no matter what. I would love to hear more from you...God Bless.

I came into recovery 3 years ago for co dependency. I have been married to a rage aholic for 15 years and my marriage was over! I was done with the craziness and the violence and I had 2 small children to protect. So I got help! 3 years ago last week I started recovery and my whole life changed! Since then I have been collecting coins for over eating. I was banded on feb 13 2008. Today I am still married. My husband is in recovery and God is using us mightily today in marriage ministry! I did secular meetings for years but always felt that there was something missing for me. In Celebrate recovery they make no qualms about naming Jesus Christ as the higher power and the recovery principles are biblically based. I dont know if u know the Lord as your personal savior yet but I encourage you to find a celebrate recovery meeting near you. You can check out their website at www.celebraterecovery.com. Everyone is welcome there!Dont get down on yourself remember God expects only progress not perfection and you are on a journey. There is no quick fix! Let me know what you thought about celebrate recovery after you attend!
