Relapsed right before, what would have been a year sober, feeling so down and disappointed in myself.
I'm sorry to hear if you need anyone to talk to I'm here
U can't stay down. You have to get back up and continue I don't wanna say start over. You haven't lost anytime u just paused it's a lapse to a relapse look up the definition. You're still doing amazing give yourself grace.
Sindel dont trip too hard. WE LEARN from our experiences.
What could I have done differently?
Where did I get lackadaisical?
What did I take for granted?
What could I have done more of or less of?
These are just examples.
Iām here if you want to talk
You still had almost a year sober! What matters now is what you do with this disappointment. Will it be motivation to stay sober today, and tomorrow, and maybe all week? Or will it lead into shame, guilt, and losing another day of sobriety? You had almost a year! That is a major accomplishment in itself!
Rarely have we seen a person fail who has thoroughly followed our path. Those who do not recover are people who cannot or will not completely give themselves to this simple program, usually men and women who are constitutionally incapable of being honest with themselves.
