Having one of those days where I feel like giving up or slipping back into old habits. Just being honest. If anyone’s been here before… how did you get through it?

I'm only 43 days sober, and yes I'm in the same boat.

I’ve had days like this myself. You’ve already done something big by asking for help! You’re going to make it through this! We’re all here for you and ever other alcoholic that still suffers!

Double-down. Meetings, calls, sharing, service. Everything I was doing had to turn it up a notch till I got through it

Zoom Meetings , podcasts, prayer , talk to people about anything that keeps you from doing bad we’re here.

Give yourself grace and know it’s normal to have these bad days where our past “escape” seems to be the easy way to cope. I personally find journaling to be very therapeutic. You are able to get out all your thoughts and emotions, both the good and bad. On days you feel like giving up you can go back to read what you wrote as a reminder on why you are making this journey. You got this Linda!

It’s not easy for me at all, but I know I have to go through this
