My Lie Concerning Sobriety Date.....
Well, has anyone else lied about their sobriety date? I recently had a 1 day drinking slip (no drugs) & told my long distance sponser & my therapist. I told on myself here at SR also. However, I still have not told my "home group" at the local AA club. I feel I would lose my respect & my status of being 9+ sober. I feel as if it would do more harm than good. I've been in & out of AA for nearly a decade & feel like I deserve the recognition of a 1 year anniversary. I have done everything suggested by folks in the program yet still struggle with "slips".
