I slipped twice last year. Just start again and be kind to yourself. You’re trying. That’s super positive. We’re in this together.

What is your action plan going forward? I have to take action every single day to remain sober. If I’m not on this forum reading and/or posting, I’m at a meeting sharing and/or helping a newcomer. If I’m not working on my recovery, then I’m working on a relapse.

That’s some gold right there, lady. Sobriety is intentional, and so is a relapse. Both involve a decision, either I won’t drink, or I will drink. We can make the former easier by doing the work, each and every day. The latter becomes easier, the less work we do.
