Hi Bubbly

My 2 cents is learn the reasons from your last relapse and try to be better prepared next time. Ignore all the negative emotions - guilt, shame, remorse, anger, sadness. These emotions will only lower your self esteem - makes you vulnerable - leads to the bottle once more. I suggest you simply accept that you have an addiction and that you slipped. Learn and do better next time. Never give up. That's all you need to take from the last relapse.

Have faith in yourself. If you never give up then eventually you will get better and better. There is no smooth road which is why not giving up is so important. I have slipped too many times to count but I wont give up !

Hang in there ! You are worth it !!
