On the other hand, I have posted something that occurred last night, and from my perspective it was purely out of curiousity and done in a lighthearted manner. The tone I am perceiving from some is not one of support or observation, but rather reprimand. I apologize if I am wrong about this. It could also be something that I need to learn as I am not very far along in sobriety and many of you have been there for years. Therefore you know far more than I do and speak from experience.
I imagine that anyone who plays around with a potential relapse or who walks the razor's edge as you did would get responses similar to yours. I don't think there's anything more to it than that.

I wonder what you might have thought had one of us happened to be there and did the same thing, before you got a chance to do it.
