Spirituality is the only way, no questions asked. Sometimes we humans are great at finding excuses and getting out of things , we try to talk ourselves out of things we know are right , give excuses and just plain out reason with ourselves ., but he’s prayer is stronger than we can imagine , thank you

I’m with ya. It’s hard for me to understand the relapses too. All I do know is that if I beat myself up over it the next one comes quicker. Glad you are staying with it.

Welcome Kevin, dust off your clothes. Leave your ego and pride at the door. Ask yourself this; How free do I want to be?
If you answered “I want to be free then you made a great leap in the right direction. Now it’s time to suit up and get to a meeting. AA, NA or whatever 12 step program you need. We sit and listen. We do what’s suggested. We become free. It’s very simple program but it calls for two things, rigorous honesty and a desire to stop drinking.
Keep moving forward. Do the work. Feel your emotions.

Keep moving! Don't let a beer stop you - isn't that what it's done to you before?
