I've had several prolonged periods of sobriety since I first got sober in 2008. My last stint was 2 yrs which I broke in April.
Anyway something a counselor in my first rehab said something which has stuck to me to this day. An alcohol consumer who has turned into an alcoholic is like a cucumber which has been turned into a pickle. Once a pickle, it can NEVER been turned into a cucumber.
Day 6.
First day of outpatient addiction group therapy today done.
