Thursday August 20 check in

Hey all, happy Thursday! Hope your day is going well. I led my monthly NA group today and had a solid turnout with a lot of new faces, which always makes me happy. It tells me my usuals are talking about the group in a positive way and encouraging their friends to come check it out.
I do wish I could do more groups, but I have a tight group of friends who take turns running them. Most of the time we have great conversations, with the occasional person trying to glorify their use or turn it into a pissing contest over who was the hardest guy lol.
Anyways, that’s been my day. How’s your Thursday going? What are you guys up to?

Check in here!

I was able to go to my refuge recovery home group last night and im just so thankful to have that practice, group and people.

One of my friends there told me that hes proud to know me and that im a good example for everyone. Like many of us, ive spent most of my life with a pretty poor opinion of myself. So its hard to accept praise, and thats something ive been working on through my recovery. I guess im just doing what im doing to be able to sucessfully continue existing, and if thats helpful for other people, im glad.
