People need to use the relaps tag when they relaps

I understand what ur saying. I take my recovery very seriously as well. When i say I am 100% clean and sober from ALL mind altering substances, I mean it. It used to bother me also when others would state they were clean but would still be smoking weed or doing what they considered less harmful drugs. They wouldnt reset their timer. The fact is, is that what they do in their recovery is really none of my business. If that is what works for them, so be it. It definitly wouldnt work for me tho. Sometimes we just need to live and let live 
They too will hopefully come around and realize that weed or other “less harmful” drugs can be JUST as dangerous.

I can understand what you are saying @Noshame. It can almost feel like a betrayal when someone gets honest and shares that while they are sober from xyz, they still use xyz. But that is their path and where they are at. Some folks are embarrassed to admit it, others don’t see it as an issue, others have their own reasons.
All we can do is focus on ourselves and our own sobriety. Offer support as best we can for others. Work on our most important relationship…the one with ourself, honestly and with compassion and grace.
We all deserve a happy, healthy life of healing.

I’m only on day 4 this time, but I have always reset my date. I relapse but I won’t post it. It would take me a while meaning months of straight binge drinking before being honest with myself and getting the courage to open this app again. But every day 1, i take accountability. I hear you. But don’t worry about others. You are doing amazing! Congratulations on your sobriety!
Edit to add: My only doc is alcohol.. don’t do anything else.

I’m a frequent relapser; each relapse, I reset my timer. Today, I’m 113 days without any mind-altering substances.
I can say I’m sober—one day at a time.

I had to learn that sobriety is not a condition guaranteed by length of time. The longer I stay sober, in fact, the more people there are with less time sober than me. So what? I have been sober today, so far. Been sober since I woke up this morning - that’s part of my user name “Since I Awoke”, and a saying that I copped from an old AA friend.
People who are closer to their last drink have a clearer recall than me about the internal, emotional and spiritual, horrors that drinking invites into our lives. People with less time than me can be more on fire for sobriety than I am, and that is an inspiration to me.
Time in grade counts in the military, and time in an account is useful for investments. We are all sober today and today only. Tomorrow is not guaranteed, since today is the only time that is real. Yesterday’s sobriety is enough to propel me into today - but is it enough to keep me sober today, or tomorrow? I have 7601 days since my last drink, and I plan to stay sober by continuing to put in sober effort, and not to think that what happened over 20 years ago is enough to keep me serene, content, and abstinent today.
Pride is a motherfucker and will kill me.

I love karaoke. Once or twice a year we go. I do it completely sober. The thing about my sobriety is I worked very hard to be able to participate in life fully. For my first year I avoided dangerous situations in order to focus on sobriety.
If you’re focused so much how many likes you are getting then you are posting from a place of ego. Rather than worrying about what other people are doing maybe check in with yourself on why likes are eating at you so much

Well, seeing as I live in a country where weed is a Class A drug, for sure me. I am glad of it, I don’t need another escape route to tempt me, and I am sure it would.
After being on this forum for a while, you do see similar cycles, the same pitfalls, and it can be frustrating, it is hard to remember how difficult it was in the beginning, and it gets harder the longer you are sober. I really respect people with really long sobriety who can still relate to and empathise so well with people in the trenches.
Others have said it earlier, but all you can do is focus on your own sobriety, and once you get sober from the actual drink and drugs, time to work on getting sober from the other stuff: self-pity, focusing on external validation, people-pleasing, etc, whatever character defects you (and me) have. It is exactly where I am as well, and while in some ways it is not as hard as working on abstinence, working on those character defects is really a task.

What? Who gives a shit, what are you talking about… Are addicts frustrating? Uh, yes. Just say your perspective and move on.
You don’t have to act like an addict because an addict is an addict.

Well done on 503 days 
At the end of the day, it’s not a competition on who’s doing what and when, it’s about staying in your lane, doing what works for you and supporting others. Everyone has different paths they go down, what works for some might not for others, no one should judge that. Staying sober/clean today is what counts

Just a gentle reminder, from my own perspective. This space works best when it stays focused on sharing and support. Recovery looks different for each of us, and comparisons or judgments can be hard to read, especially for people who are struggling or just finding their footing. What helps me is keeping the focus on my own experience and offering support where I can, without defining anyone else’s recovery. We’re all here trying to stay sober today.
