I just moved to a new state
Congratulations on your progress Sheila. I am a work in progress. Your experience is something that I worry about as I move forward. Your strength in this situation is inspiring for others on this journey who may not be quite there yet. Thanks for sharing

Beach Vacationās are the toughest for me. Pool bars, drinking on the beach. I miss it so much. Itās the closest I come and Iām lucky I havenāt caved. Play the tape in your head, make a phone call, do anything you can. You got this!

Congratulations on your 2 years. I give you a lot of credit because I will have 33 months and I still canāt be around that kind of function. We as alcoholics need to protect ourselves at all cost. Just remember all the hard work you have done and remember what will happen if you pick up again. My last relapse started with a Hugh sip of beer and within days I was sitting at a bar drinking martinis. I belong to an early recovery group on Tuesdays and a woman there admitted that she had a mikes ice tea and tried to say itās only 5% alcohol. She was still shaking and is now back out and no longer doing recovery. Please be careful you got this even One Minute at a Time.
