5 years ago today is when I decided after 3 years and 4 months of not drinking that I would try some controlled drinking. I was on the last stitch effort to save a marriage that was already ended I just wasn’t ready to see things for what they were. So I drank to be closer to the person I was when drinking and hanging out was fun. I failed. I quickly realized after just a few outings that I was going right back into that squirrel cage. Little did I know that a year later I would hit my ultimate bottom. Even being sober at that time for 7 months was my truest gift from God. Everything that was in my way of seeing God clearly was removed and I could finally work on me. I share this because I need to remember. I need to remember what happens when I put something ahead of my sobriety. I’m not a victim today I am a victor only because of God and the fellowship.
Have a great day everyone.

I was sober for 8 years then thought that i could have 1 drink, i must be better now.
Within weeks i was back to drinking like i did before that 8 years, and 2 years later i am now 116 days sober.
I am gratefull to be back in sobriety with the power and strength i have now but i also often remind myself that i can not have one drink, or control it and i must not be fooled by this illusion.
Thankyou for your posts.
