I havnt relapsed since i got sober this is the first time ive ever got to a month sober and here i am at 17 months
I too was seriously scared ppl were dropping like flies around me and i put it to this forum
The best reply i got by far and its gonna stay with me was
Relapse is part of my addiction Relapse is not part of my recovery
For me that was astounding made a ton of sense in any way you look at that sentence
what i took from it was that im in recovery & relapse simply isnt part of that
I cant tell you how much that calmed me down
Relapse is never inevitable
