Day five is a good start!!
My first sponsor gave me sound advice - listen to the guy who relapses. I would add, listen carefully.
Most "feel" it coming before it happens. Here's a thread a friend started a few days back and what he learned from his relapse - adding a plan in advance not to relapse.

Friends posts of relapse tend to jump out at us. There are many stories of success as well. I could care less about the percentages - this is my recovery and the lot is not yet cast.......
Maybe check out the link of friends stories who have at least a year of sobriety. Might be helpful to affirm the success many have!
