Hey all! I have been in recovery for a long time. I have had long stretches of sobriety but have relapsed more times than I'd like to admit.
But honesty is the key, right? My slips are too many to count but I won't give up!.
At the moment, I have only been sober for 2 days...
It's great to talk with people who can relate!

Well then welcome back to SR!
I've got a few years under my belt, but the fact is that we've both only got today. I'll worry about tomorrow when it gets here.

My denial was a huge problem in the first couple of years. After learning more about the disease, I realized I had turned to the drink due to my lack of coping skills with certain situations. I had also disconnected spirituality as a result of my heavy drinking.
Forward we go...side by side-Rest In Peace

Welcome back to SR
and more importantly ...welcome back to recovery.
The book that finally convinced me to quit drinking is
"Under The Influence" by Mialam & Ketcham.
