Hi jaz. I'm so glad you came here to discuss what happened. Most of us have had a similar setback in the beginning. I had to start over again many times, but I finally got it. Life is so much better with a clear head, no cloud of fog hanging over us.
I felt sorry for myself when I first quit. I can remember thinking it was the end of having fun or relaxing. If I'd been honest, I would have admitted it had been many years since it had been fun. All my drinking sessions were unpredictable and dangerous in the end. As artsoul said, we aren't losing a thing - we're reclaiming our lives.
You can do it, jaz.
We know you can.
