Relapse

We’ll I relapsed in March. I went back to treatment after being home for two weeks.

This time I stayed for 45 days and just got back Sunday.

I am going to IOP and working the steps…anything to make it this time

You can make it. Remove the illusions of benefits from using by taking a close look at the truth, and you're free. Someone recommended a book to me on here, Alan Carr's quit drinking without willpower, which has helped me to gain the freedom I wanted and now have.

I lost count of how many times I relapsed, and that was after rehab(s), sober living, and IOP’s. Don’t beat yourself up, relapse is part of it. But when you’re really ready for a new life, you’ll relapse for the last time.
Stay strong :muscle:t3:

Please rely heavily on your friends in AA. Make lots of meetings. Reach out to the people you connect with whenever you're feeling weird. Dont do this alone.
