Day 75 and tough
Hey fellow non drinkers/ i have been sober almost 2 and a half months now and I have felt it difficult of late. having gone to AA meetings very regularly, I have built up a strong support network for not drinking. Unfortunately I am not seeing the recovery magic that I expected to see despite my best efforts. I have seen AA members having exhaustively walk the steps relapse after years of sobriety, which leads me to the conclusion that AA is a program of support thru sympathy rather than anything else. Why else would this happen to a long termer after several years of sobriety?? This is only one case out of dozens Ive come across over the months. I am less enthused by promises of sobriety after this, but I do realize the value of the group for just hanging out for a while and talking and listening to people who understand my position. Thats it!
