I can only speak of mysef with certainty, but it's my belief that NO one here wants you to fail. Quite the contrary.
My mind has a hard time with absolute concepts such as 'never', and 'always'. To me any statements that use words like these are set-ups for failure. I try not to think in absolutes. I try to live in the one day at a time frame of mind and today I will not drink, or use, maybe tomorrow, but not today. I'm fairly certain that I can make it through today. I'm not so sure about never.
