Just need a little encouragement. I slipped up last night after doing well for a while and am beating myself up pretty bad.
You got this! Have hope and keep reaching out. remember it’s a disease that’s cunning baffling and powerful. Do not beat yourself up. Give yourself grace and I’m proud of you for asking for help
Hi Private! Most of us don’t pick up a white chip and live happily ever after. Just as recovery is a process, accepting step 1 is a process as well. As Elle said, it’s a disease and it has its ways of messing with your mind so that a drink seems kind a pretty good idea. Those who are able to maintain sobriety do so with a daily program to combat this powerful foe. You can do it too! You’re already on your way!
