    Hi everyone. Im shannon and I am an alcoholic. I have been diagnosed with ptsd due to a previous relationship and am now being treated finally . I believe I must deal with the ptsd in order to be living sober. I have been drinking for 30 years and am now recovering . I am so glad to be here. Today is my sober day 1. Thanks for reading.
