Congrats on the 10 months!

You shouldn't have to live with your family or friends saying things like that. It is disrespectful and you need to call them on it.

Don't need to be nasty or anything. Just say something polite, like "gosh, I have worked so hard for my sobriety and it hurts to hear you all repeating all my antics all the time. I wish you would stop." The past is the past and should stay in the past. Full stop!

After trying nicely, if it doesn't work there is always the "f" word.... but that would be me... You don't need to go there. I am sure your family will be totally understanding once you let them know how much these comments hurt you.

I think you are right about Mr. Ltt.... a little sobriety wouldn't hurt him.

Good luck!
