I had seven years and I’m just starting to get back to doing the work. I’m at 24 days now. Trying as hard as I can to not to beat myself up for giving away all that time.

Brandon think of it this way….you know you have the ability to go for years without drinking. And you probably learned a lot about yourself in the process. So don’t beat yourself up.

Welcome back! Glad you made it. Not everyone does. This is a success story on its own. Accept that we can’t change our pasts, live in the present. For guilt, take responsibility. For shame, chose self compassion. Doesn’t really matter how much time we’ve had before. All we have is 24 hours today. That is where the meat of life is. Glad you’re back.
