MooMoos, glad you didn't give in! I have to run to my Tuesday night meeting so I don't have much time to post..but here's a short one

I was reading something earlier today that really rang home for me- the physical 'drunk' is preceded by a 'mental binge' that always results in a spiritual blackout...the way I feel after a relapse those words totally hit home...spiritual blackout! Or Emotional bankruptcy! And preceded by a 'mental binge'....whoa, so true.

Sounds like you worked your way through a mental binge and came out on the other side, do your best to hang tight and as the others have said give long pause as to what brought you here to SR to begin with. I echo dee statements about using real life face to face support networks, for me I need both and both serve a significant purpose in my recovery.

Glad you toed the line and didn't cave!
