KIR welcome back

Caramel, you now have a sober twin so you can help each other over these rocky first days.

A slip and a return here, it's really hard to keep on the path in the first weeks. That annoying AV is screaming its usual sh1te in your ear telling you all sorts of lies and deals. Fact is as you both know, only hard work and a deaf ear will get you back on the path. Keep busy, keep your eyes on the prize, and spend as much time aroubd SR as you need to.
In early sobriety we need to be pretty self centred, our sobriety has to be our number one focus. Let's face it, we have all been selfish as f¥<€ in our drunkenness, so a little self absorbtion in early sobriety can be forgiven.
What tools have you both got in place to make it work this time? What will you do differently? At least you can draw on your own past experience, as well as the wealth of knowledge here. You both know where to find me if you want to pm anytime.
Be strong, Our very own Babs is proof of the adage try try and try again.
