Relapsed after 8 months. Now I’m back to day 3. Not sure what I’ll do differently this time.
What didn't work last time and if it didn't ask yourself why? Then figure out what might help better this time. Think it like the game of Sorry. Yes you had to go back to start but see how far you can make it around the board next time.
What you will try and do differently is just working on today. One day at a time is all that is asked. I have found that with my recovery and I am still early in my recovery 4 1/2 months. Is going to meetings in person on zoom. There is a site online called "in the rooms" meetings every hour for some addictions. Don't download the app though just use online browser. As well a sponsor and working the 12 steps.
Meetings sponsor 12 steps and any extra reading or service work. Don't worry so much on what you need to do differently than just by the grace of God or your high power you just worry about today.
Keep your head up high so you can see those blessings that so do come with soberity!
Most importantly you got back up and no matter how long we been clean and sober we got 24 hrs to make the decision not to give in to our vices. Hope and pray for you to make it.
All you did was change the date. You didn't loose the time or what you have learned. Just keep going. Lean in to the fellowship and ask questions. Glad you are safe.
Happened to me only 25 days ago.
You got this. Let's not go thru this detox h3ll ever again.
strength comes from surrender.
It doesn't make sense,
Do you attend meetings to get support?
People places and things get a network and stick to a positive routine this is life and death for us
