I'm glad you didn;t give in Louise. There's no shame in 'nearly drinking', You won
My relationship with family is difficult too - I made the decision not to see them too often until I felt stronger in my recovery - when I did see them I made sure I had a 'staying in recovery' plan for before during and after.
When I was getting sober I made a commitment to post here everyday, even if it was a good day and specifically if it was a bad one.
It kept me sober - but I had to have a recovery plan tat had more in it than just SR
What else are you doing for recovery apart from posting here?
