Hey everyone! Just a quick update/journal entry
It's been a long time since I posted but thanks to the support that I have continued to read on here I have only had one relapse in 125 days
Lots has happened in the past 125 days in this crazy life. I have become engaged to an amazing woman who has two great teenage kids. I have never been a stepfather before or ever had children, so the challenges that come with this are huge for me. It has threatened my sobriety a few times, but I have "played the tape through to the end" and beaten my AV down.
I had one brief relapse and I wanted to share my experience of how important it is to not dwell and fixate on failures. One relapse in 125 days is better than 125 drunk days. I hope this can help someone.
I hope everyone is doing okay today.
