Hi i been in recovery for over 3 years now. I went to programs then eventually got into a halfway house. I had left the house to get into a sober house but I recently relapsed 09-28-19. I been clean ever since the 1st so I feel better I just want to stay clean and I would love some words and motivation to keep pushing and to not go back to that horrible substance again.

Well I’m really not to sure. It was a Friday I just was getting thoughts in my head. And I said f it and I’ll just get a drink and drink a little bit. Then it got out of hand from there.
I recently read, and repeated it in a post, thst before you pick up that drink (in my case) think it through to.the.end.! I totally love that mindset! I mean the crappy sleep, the hangover, maybe something not so proud of…lol! I’m proudcof you anyway because you came back here!

Inspiration is empowerment for all I believe. It’s a ripple effect.
