Nobody is perfect. Just learn from it, like what happened that led to that?
What were you doing and what weren't you doing?
Where was your head and your heart at?
What is most important is growth.
Be kind to self, love yourself, forgiving self

I relapsed too same week as my 6 month milestone. Was back out a year even with 28days in treatment in between. Like a week out of treatment i relapsed.

2 things i think really helped this time. Whatever i thought was the reason i relapsed i avoided, people, places and things. I i stopped resisting the suggestions. I turned my thinking over to women with 20+ years sobriety. i obviously didn’t know how to be sober. Eventually my relationship with my self improved. I started to be a kids again. And grow up sober.
