Feeling really sad

I spent a few years in Kentucky. Am a traveling Goat. From what I remember (not much), there is a little more than bourbon. :wink:

Not to condone a relapse, but they do happen. The important thing is that you are back and not still out there. Work on getting support around you so you can move forward. Will it be easy? No. But we are always here for you and remember we understand and will always have room and love for you.

Ahh the shame is so familiar and the pattern for me has been relapse-shame-isolation-deeper into addiction. Isolation is the worse when you are trying to recover, this why lots of people in here have benefitted from programmes like AA.
You are not alone, we are all in this together. You should feel incredibly proud that you made a start on breaking free from what sounds like a difficult and hurtful past.
Keep getting back, you are stronger than you realise! X
