I am currently fighting my way through a relapse. The hard part about it is actually getting into a detox in the timeframe from when you make the choice to get sober to when a bed becomes available. Recoverey is a momentum game to me, and once you lose it its very difficult to "get the ball rolling again". Thank goodness I have an amazing partner. She sent me this video about this app, so I downloaded it. Hello, my name is Justin and im addict.

Hi Justin, Welcome to the Loo. A relapse certainly does kill the momentum of recovery, but on the other side of the coin, it could be the jarring experience that brings about a more rigorous application of the program. Waiting for a bed in detox is a great first step. I had to wait to go to treatment for weeks. I went to meetings and listened to the people sharing. They told me to keep coming back, like they cared! So I did just that. I figured a meeting would keep me clean for an hour and a half, and I might just learn something about what might work for me to stay clean. I'm an addict, my name is Al
