I can't tell you how many times I have relapsed. In the past 29 days, I have not relapsed once. It took me along time to realize just how miserable I was with alcohol. You have to truly WANT to quit before you can actually quit.
Most of the times that I had quit in the past, I had been doing it only to accomodate everyone else in my life. Now, I just want it for myself. I only hurt myself and those around me when I am drunk. It is not worth it to me anymore.
