Relapse is common, but I don't believe it's inevitable binger...it certainly doesn't need to be
I went back to drinking many times, but since I decided to put everything I had into my recovery, I haven't drunk again - that was nearly 6 years ago now.
I really believe you get out of your recovery what you put in...
a lot of people underestimate the task or overestimate themselves - including me many times....but if you're determined not to drink again no matter what, you make that a priority, and you pull out all the stops to keep making that happen?
you can stay sober for the rest of your life
