Losing my gf, she showed me more love than anyone. In my case, losing her is what woke me up to the need for change.
Regrets are like hindsight. 20/20. It easy to dwell on the past and say "what if", but what good are alternate realities? Learn from the past, make amends, move forward and do better tomorrow.

Can't repeat the past my friend? Of course you can! J gatsby
No. Time is linear. The past is the past. Sure you can make the same mistake over and over. But each event is singular.

Taking the first drink at 12 - a White Russian made by my mom - yummy - just like chocolate milk with a kick - I knew I was in trouble

I had way too many to count. Keep me down and out and isolated. Glad for mercy, grace and gratitude
My daughter addiction started with me. We have to go forward forgive ourselves and walk in gods light.
All the days and hours wasted with regret and remorse over the past, what I did and what I lost, instead of being present and building a better future. Morbid reflection is a part of early sobriety but it solves nothing. It drags you down and you miss all the blessings of recovery.
