Hi Prion

I think the first thing to realise is none of us are supermen - or women.

This sobriety thing is a huge upheaval and you will find situations that test you for a while.

Give yourself a break - you have 11 days, and you haven't drunk, you're reaching out for support and you're aware of the areas where you can do better, and cautious of old behaviours returning.

That's pretty good progress in my book

Stressing out about the way you handle stress is kinda self-defeating

If you're not happy with some of the things you did - think about what other ways you could have coped...try them next time?
