I relapsed after almost 4 years. I had just had a baby, but any major stressor doesn't help. I just kept saying I really need something to take the edge off. I remember holding the bottle in my hands and thinking really hard about it. Just one or two, I kept telling myself. I'll feel better and be able to handle this. I told myself I would be able to quit, because I've done it before. 6 months later, I am 13 days sober. I absolutely could not just have one or two. I picked up where left off, only worse. Me, it was overconfidence.
