Failure i guess. I know a time will come when i have the urge to drink, and i will think it is “safe”. And it may be for a while. But not for long. I worry about that.
I guess everyone here is worrying about it. I know I do. It helped me to decide what I would do if/when I relapsed… I would pick myself up and try again. It wouldn’t be pretty to go through day 1 yet again but I want to live my life sober so yes, if I relapse I will just do it again. xxx

I never cancelled my account but i would lie if I said I never considered it it must be part of the process… but to me also a sign that I am already relapsing in my head and have to do something about it ASAP… actually NOW. Well done for staying sober my friend, and thank God for your 35+

Just to say 143 sober days here!
Life is just so busy now… work, fitness, library, cats, occasionally my daughter
I still manage to make an effort and watch myself for the way I react, my thinking process my feelings. They say strong feelings are NOT addict’s best friends and best avoided in early sobriety. I need to remind myself about it.
Sometimes I still notice my old ways of throwing my toys out of the pram when Im not exactly content with the way life goes, thats when I used to get drunk before. I don’t even exactly know how Ive learned to stay sober through these moments, I guess Im still learning.
I need to constantly remind myself that I dont have to be perfect, I only need to be sober… thats when Im brave enough to be myself, put myself first. And it feels so good xxx
