I love the advice you have gotten, getting up early to work out so you’re too tired at night, choosing a meeting over a piss-up, not thinking past today as it’s a 24 hr program.
All solid advice, my advice is don’t go.
I mean you could line up a group of addicts and alcoholics who have a substantial amount of sobriety and cleantime under their belt and ask them all, " How many of you went to bars, crack shacks and hung out at your dealers houses when you were trying to clean up?" I bet they would all raise their hands BUT I bet very few of them did it in the first few months of this current string of sobriety or clean time they had.
Going to establishments like that when you are newly in recovery is like licking a razorblade. You need to guard your recovery with all your might, always. Come here and hang out with us on the Friday night thread we will keep you company.
