I relapsed. I'm finding it very difficult to ask for any help. I am isolating. I appreciate this site. This is the most comfortable I am able to share. Things were going well. Once again here I am.

Isolating after relapsing isn't the best you can do if you truly want to be free. I suggest going to an AA meeting. You will find help there and asking for it won't be as difficult as you think. Be honest with them and yourself and the help offered will come. Listen to others share and take suggestions.

I relapsed this past Summer. I am 71 days sober now. My children are with their Father on the other side of the country. They've never been away from me overnight-much less this. I am struggling a lot. I have been going to 5 meetings a week and church on Sundays. I reeeally didn't want to go tonight, but I went anyway. Friday night is 9-10 and it is easily the most difficult to go to, but it really does help. It is helping. I would definitely also suggest AA. Being able to relate with someone is good, and I have found that I almost always relate with someone. I, personally, still haven't shared. Not once. I don't know when I will be able to either. But it is awesome to connect with other people. Definitely give it a try.

Lots of good experience posted here. If drugs and alcohol are your thing, I found refuge in Narcotics Anonymous. Just celebrated 5 years clean and sober back on October 5th. Thank-you for sharing.
