Daily Check in to avoid relapse. šŸ¤·ā€ā™€ļø ANY support sincerely valued!

Itā€™s not as scary as youā€™ll make it out to be in your head. Everyone at every meeting Iā€™ve been to has been so freakishly nice and welcoming. I know itā€™s scary but itā€™s so worth it. :blush:

I understand this might feel like I big step, but continuing as you were was not an option either.
You will find merely people like us at meetings.

Also please try both NA and AA as they might be different energywise. Find a place where you feel recognized and safe.

You are awesome for accepting the suggestion, that might proof to be your first step. :pray:

This is it al in one post. We cannot trust our addict mind, it has led us to bad places year after year.

Youā€™re so right. I just wish I was more consistent. Like I didnt let it make choices for me at all. I wish I was just so strong willed I never caved and just had one of those stories where people make that call and just dont go back.

The only people who could do that werenā€™t addicts.
Spin those wishes into hope, and trust that the program will give you just that, hope, it did for so many of us.

Whatā€™s the worst thing that can happen if you go? Whatever youā€™re afraid of is probably built up in your mind. If you can get thereā€¦ Then go! Then you donā€™t have to wait until Wednesday. You can do this.

:sob: Iā€™m gna try

There is no time to try. Just do. :blush: Chances are you wonā€™t regret it.

Iā€™m not trying to be bossy. And I know we are practically strangersā€¦ But if you really want to make a change and be different itā€™s time to do something youā€™ve never done to get something youā€™ve never had. I was just about to go to sleep (itā€™s midnight here) and saw your post. So I just had to chime in. Because I care. I really do!

Drive safe. Just be yourself. Let someone know itā€™s your first time. They have free stuff to give you most likely and you can get phone numbers from people who are willing to be there for you. You got this girl! So proud of you!!

Iā€™m going to sleep (already took my sleepy meds). But let me know how it goes so I have something to look forward to in the morning. :heart: :hugs:
