Back on day 2 and feel awful about myself

So you slipped up. Don't beat yourself up. Maybe you don't have to start all over at 'day one'. Maybe you con take this as a learning opportunity instead. What triggered you? How were you feeling when you decided to use? Evaluate the experience so that you can be better prepared for it next time.
Maybe you can rephrase this to say "in ___ amount of time, I have only had ___. And I am going to improve that".

Today is all that matters now. Lots to be excited about on this journey.. day 101 here… I’m more at peace, money is much better, less stress, less worry, etc (all the good things). But it starts with managing today and day after day things get easier the first few weeks are the hardest but you will go through the wringer in emotions and being tired etc. just keep going and remember this too shall pass - soon you feel like ur on a pink cloud and it’s totally worth it

Congrats on the 2days! We get back up and do better by learning from our mistakes and taking action on what we’ve learned.
I ask myself, where could I have taken a better action? The truth always reveals itself. Now what I CHOOSE to do is entirely up to me.
I’m here if you want to talk

Try not to get hung up on the time thing

All you ,me ,or anyone else in the world gets ,is Today

  • and all that you need is a Desire to stop

IT IS AN HONEST TO GOD MIRACLE FOR AN ADDICT OR ALCOHOLIC BOT TO USE FOR JUST ONE DAY

I accepted it I've got group today 1-4 and a counselor appointment at 4:30

Wow, that's Fantastic Amy
just think how much recovery you can pack on in during all of that time !!
Woo Hoo

I'm just trying to make you feel better and pump you up

Just remember, it is ONLY TEMPORARY
tell yourself that - repeatedly
Try to engage and participate - it will go a little in faster, because I know how all of those hours can be so excruciating
Just think of it as practice for going to AA or NA meetings everyday, but for only an hour - huh huh
And remember to smile :grin:

Don’t punish yourself anymore so you had a relapse now you recognize it it’s OK forgive yourself and move forward. Be positive.
