Relapsed after almost 21 months of sobriety

I ended up relapsing on alcohol and my DOC this month. Almost 7 days sober from DOC, 5 from alcohol. I had almost 21 months.

Great job! Welcome back

Welcome back! What did you learn from this painful experience? For me, I learned that the substances were just a symptom, and that I needed to do more work on changing from the inside out. While your day count goes back to day 1, you get to keep all the new experiences you gained in those 21 months, and pick it from there.

Your relapse doesn’t erase your hard work! Keep it up! Keep showing up for yourself and staying strong!:muscle:
