I have had numerous relapses (in fact most of them I don't think are officially relapses as I only had a day or two between drinks!) but people like you - talking through things the way you have - inspire me to do it this time!!
Thank you
Ta VW, much appreciated.
Maybe you should start your own journal. Something you can go back and read if you feel the need to drink. Maybe just to remind yourself of the horror and pain that awaits.
Baby steps, one day at a time. One hour at a time. If all else fails, one minute at a time.
It is my pleasure.
Cheers,
