Relapse after 5 days

Hi @Doodles and welcome to the forum. :wave: Congrats on taking the first big step.

5 days is amazing, but maybe don’t call it a “relapse” yet, I would reserve that for longer periods. It’s probably more of a do-over, you’re just starting to get traction. Have you fully committed to 100% sobriety? Or still sitting on the fence about moderation. I wasn’t sure from this thread. To me a drink is a drink vodka is same as wine is same as beer - they all get you drunk, it’s just a matter of efficiency.

Here is a useful thread on getting through early recovery:
