JackB

(he/him)

I am a divorced 73 year old man who became addicted to alcohol at age 64. After 2 1/2 years I entered an outpatient program. Shortly thereafter, I began to experience strong anxiety sensations and was diagnosed with Social and Generalized Anxiety. I have experienced emotional abuse in the past. I value peer support as an integral part of my recovery from alcohol abuse and managing my anxiety.

"Very inspiring way of hosting! Somebody you want to be around and who encourages you to feel better not by teaching but just by the examples he gives and who he is"

What I Hope to Share

I hope to contribute my own story, my successes and failures, and my learnings to the collective consciousness of ShareWell. I hope to obtain a feeling of being understood and accepted, a sense of being where I belong, and practical tips and techniques I can apply to my everyday life.

What Brought Me to ShareWell

Since I knew the value of peer support from my alcohol-abuse recovery, I went looking for support to help manage my anxiety. I found therapists holding 90-minute sessions for 6-8 people for $60-80 per session, but not true peer support. Until (thru MeetUp) I joined ShareWell. I have been delighted with my experience and now host regular anxiety support meetings.
