Relapse is not inevitable and it's not a part of recovery...but it is pretty common for us to underestimate this task - but once you realise that, it's also pretty easy to add other things to your 'toolbox' and get this sober thing right
I recommend everyone find support, and use it when you need it. There's a number of good threads here to join like the Class of July Support thread or the 24 hour recovery connections thread to committ publicly to 24 hours more recovery.
Also, make the changes in your lifestyle or way of thinking that you know you need to make to reflect your desire to be sober.
If you want change, make change
Make your recovery plan as good as you can get it. There are some really great ideas here:
