I believe I have a stack of 24-hour chips somewhere. The many day ones that I accumulated on repeat. Today I am recovered pushing forward into two years. Everyone has the ability to recover it just takes work. And although not easy in the beginning I can say that it’s worth it.

I’m on day 2 and feel the same way. I make it to a week or two but then pick up again. I hate myself for succumbing.

You’re strong for coming back and trying again. I’m with you in this and also starting over. One day at a time i came on here beating myself up, and some kind people in this community told me not to- I know that it’s easier said then done but it is true. Things take time to heal and change and the fact that you came back here to try again is something to be proud of in itself.

Thank you
You are strong too 
Yes it’s breaking that cycle and the feelings that come with all. We have to remind ourselves that the feelings will pass. Give ourselves some love because we already feel down. Looking at the positives and concentrating on those.
It does get better each day.
We can do this

Proud of you girl. Scream your setbacks and your triumphs. Take care of you, it’s an act of love and survival to do so. It’s brave of you to pick yourself up and continue forward, even if you stumble a little on your way out the door. It’s okay to make mistakes and fail sometimes. That’s how we learn and grow as individuals. What’s important is that you pick yourself up, learn from your mistakes, and keep moving forward. And if you ever feel like you’re not okay, it’s okay to ask for help. You are not failing harder because of that. You don’t have to go through anything alone. It’s okay to let go. To drop the walls on the fortresses you’ve built with your vices.
Shame is the killer of joy. Feeling shame about what has happened or what choices you’ve made is useless. Forgive yourself first and foremost for whatever guilt and shame you are harboring. If you can wake up in the morning and go to bed at night feeling proud of the decisions you’ve made and the things you’ve done, then you’ve won. If you can’t, then try again tomorrow. You’ve got this girl! 
Post tenebras spero lucem- After darkness, I hope for light
