I really wish you the best! The hard part is not to quit but to stay quit. You can do this!
And don't call yourself a loser. You are not one, you are still in the race
SoberJuly- I don't agree with this person. I think you're doing great, and had a slip. Good luck, keep back on what was working before, and learn/grow. You haven't failed the race- you just tripped a second!
