Be careful though if you feel that the "relapse is part of recovery" (not sure who says that but maybe AA) is going to be an excuse for you to drink.... Then leave that part there.
Originally AA/AAer's have said, "...take what you need and leave the rest," but they were referring to what's heard in meetings (because it may, or may not, truly be AA).
AA definitely does NOT say, "Relapse is a part of recovery;" AA actually says........: "Relapse is NOT a part of recovery; it's a part of the disease/illness."
