Hello and welcome!

Yes, we can feel that we are alone in our struggle until we read stories about others who have shared our own experiences. We have so much in common it's scary lol.

And as for success stories, well, they are wonderful and inspirational. the 'struggle' stories are good too, perhaps even better, because they prove that we can slip and binge and fall then get right back up again and head towards goal. Good luck on your own path x
