Hello there - Cyber Recovery Social Network Forums

SkinnyNinja · 06-25-2006, 10:17 PM

I am new to this website but I have been sober and recovering since 01/01/01, and I typically visit some other recovery forums on the web. I still get nervous about sharing at face-to-face meetings so I like the online recovery community. I also started taking some classes online and I found that I like that a lot too.

I'm 30 years old, male, and I work at a treatment center, which is pretty neat. I'm not a therapist or anything, more of a babysitter for the residential clients. Since I am usually shy and passive, this job has been a real challenge for me. It makes me assert myself, which is always uncomfortable. It takes forever for me to become more assertive and to be more confident when speaking in front of all the clients. I have been there for a year and I still get scared. Anyways, it's nice to see another recovery forum--this place seems pretty cool!
