Hello everyone! My name is Kelly and I'm a COE.
Wow...it's been a while since I've been able to "say" that. Four years ago we moved from Indianapolis to a small rural town in South Carolina. I was attending 3-4 meetings a week for over 10 years and OA was a huge part of my life. With no face to face meetings to attend regularly I tried the local AA meetings but longed for other COE. Eventually depression and relapse got the best of me. Last year I tried WW since there was a local meeting but I struggled with not being able to really talk about the actual struggle of COE. I've been out there on my own now for about 3.5 years and it isn't pretty. Would LOVE a whole bunch of OA MFP friends! Please let me know if you are open to that. It works if you work it...right?

Hi Kelly, and welcome back to OA! Although not face-to-face, have you tried the online meetings? When I can't get to a meeting, I work in the OA workbook, or give another OAer a shoutout. Feel free to add me, I would love to connect!0
