It's so tempting to relapse
Don’t!!!!!
Go to a meeting asap
It can be tempting st times but it's not worth it don't throw away all the work you've done
It can be but stay strong and don’t give in….the temptation will pass
When i was going through my program. Another guy in there with me said. "I dont think i have another recovery in me". This guy was late 50's and on his 3rd or 4th recovery journey.
I think what he meant was. Relasping is easy, recovering is hard.
Right! I still can't stay sober, but I want to.
Don't give an inch of the ground you've gained. Expect a miracle. There are plenty of blessings out there if you're straight enough to receive them.
Get to a meeting asap even if it's online
Relapsing won’t fix what’s hurting. It might feel like a moment of relief, but it risks taking everything you’ve fought so hard for.
I get it easier said than done.
Lean on your crutches! meetings, higher power
Just remember what it was like when you were using. And how much better you life is today hopefully. It seems like when things are going better. That’s when I think I can use again and it goes south really fast. Be tough and be smart. And we are all here for you.
I remind myself if I relapsed I would die a sad and painful death. There are times it's very difficult but it would be so much worse with alcohol. Set your timer for 15 minutes, and keep doing it as needed. Or go for a walk, take a shower, take a nap. Anything to break the minds focus on taking a drink. You just have to make it through today.
The misery is refunded immediately
