I need to get sober & stay sober

I need to get sober & stay sober

Good morning all. Is anyone here who got sober & managed to stay sober? I've been a part of AA, but I've struggled with relapses. Any advice is greatly appreciated.

Hi @GEEKAY

Welcome to the forums, and thanks for sharing.

Have you tried the National Drug and Alcohol Hotline - 1800 250 015?

That call diverts to your state's drug and alcohol treatment team, where you can access things like counselling, detox and rehab for free.
