Has anyone supported you while choosing to get sober or throughout your sobriety?

This is an excellent question.

Yes, and no.
My husband wanted me to quit, and has stuck with me through the abuse of me intoxicated, but when I ask him to get me a bottle, he always complies. The times he doesn’t, it’s usually a regretful night and I end up getting it on my own. For the past 3 days I have been secretly sober. I realized, I AM my own worst enemy. Currently having night sweat and shivers. I hope this platform works for all of us.... what a great question!

Most of us don’t have supportive families or people in our lives. Even if they want to support us they don’t really know how.

So important to know people who do know how.

Very true 
Karen, my husband is like yours. I am so very lonely.
I have been trying my best to find communities to a) find other sober individuals to connect with and b) hold myself accountable.
I have no desire for AA as it's not really my thing and have instead been looking for a community to help online.
It is difficult finding the right fit. I think finding some sober friends would be a huge help! I just need to be patient I guess!
