I can say this. If you feel like your about to relapse… ask yourself this… Am I ready to go back to the misery, sickness, uncontrollable anxiety, feeling like you’ll self implode, the hopelessness… the disappointment, guilt, shame, embarrassment, self propelled depression… INVITING the obsession 2 drink back in to your life that puts u right back in the viceous cycle… drinking not to feel these things. You may or may not make it back. Thats the truth.
Think, think, think :thinking:
