I used my relapse prevention plan after 614 sober days

I am very fortunate not to have frequent thoughts of drinking/smoking pot anymore, so i was surprised to have a dream where i drank and then to think about buying pot gummies the next day. For more than a few hous while i was driving, i tried to rationalize the gummies in many ways. Then i chatted with a friend and let her know what i was thinking and that i knew for me, eating gummies would be compromising my sobriety. She said no gummies and i agreed. The next day she texted and asked if i had taken any gummies, and i was happy to be honest and say no. By the next day, the craving was gone even though i went to a Government Mule concert. :grinning: I promised myself to talk to people BEFORE I relapsed...I'm glad my plan worked as i had hoped. I hope you all have a sober day today and out your relapse plans into action if needed!

Well done Linda. It happens, and it’ll most likely happen again. Recovery truly is ODAAT, and this a great example of why we focus on our recovery everyday.
