Hi

My name is Shanda, and I am an alcoholic living in Germany. I am relatively new to sobriety (Nine months soon, God willing), and completely new to Cyberrecovery. I'm trying to explore online options for connecting with other people in recovery, as I am realatively isolated here.

I love this group of very supportive people you've stumbled upon. Keep coming back, you'll find what you are looking for here. Congratulations on your almost 9 months. You said you're isolated, does that mean you don't have AA meetings in your area? There is a lot of experience, strength and hope to be found at this website.
