Just over it

Relapsed for a year after having 6 years sober and now I back on the wagon. Day 2. I’m feeling so frustrated, heartbroken and just feeling defeated.

Katie, 6 years is real and it's still yours, it doesn't disappear because of this past year. Day 2 is hard, the shame spiral is often worse than the urge itself. You're not back at zero, you're back with everything you learned the first time still in you. Proud of you for showing up here instead of staying quiet about it. One day at a time, you've got this.

I really appreciate those kind words. The shame spiral is so loud but I’m going to bed sober. A win is a win.
