If i got wasted ofter a month and then didn't drink again for 2 months, or forever, i might call it a taper.
Definitely healthier than if i had drank that whole month.
Most of us here might consider ourselves baptized in the waters of addiction awareness. Now we are convicted to not drink.
Relapse now causes shame.
Nowing that i made it a month clean meant i could make it for life. After a month, it is all mental and physical healing. The physical addiction is gone.
Mentally the hell rampednup for well into 6 months. The craves were fierce.
I had major agoraphobia that would come and go. That helped me quit.
It has all but went away. It left some ptsd for me to remember to not relapse.
Based on what i read here, relapse for me means clock resetting insanity.
Thanks.
