Relapsed after a year of sobriety. That was 10

Relapsed after a year of sobriety. That was 10 months ago. Not sure how many day ones I’ve had since then. Day 1 again today. White knuckling isn’t working I know that but feels like I’m getting closer

Sorry to hear you’ve been struggling. Stopping is one thing, but staying stopped is what we need to learn. Did you do anything special to maintain sobriety for that year? Are there things you were doing that you stopped doing? Sorry to ask questions, but the answers may help you get back to where you were. Either way, it’s great that you are here now and trying again! Hope we can help you in your new journey :pray::peace_symbol:

I suggest that you only surround yourself with sober friends. Indulge in activities that do not trigger you to drink/use. It took me going through the worst withdrawals I ever had to quit drinking. I almost died.
