I am glad to hear your friends reached out and you are going back

The only thing that you can do is start over. Today is day 1!

While Daytrader may have been a bit harsh I agree. It is a big deal when you get passed a year. You've worked so hard to get there and know how hard it is to start again. It is certainly not something to just blow off.

I'm glad you are taking steps to get back to where you want to be in your sobriety

I relapsed after 19 years of abs and did not return to the rooms until 18 months later. I was warmly welcomed back.

Don't let that ego, shame, guilt, keep you from getting the help you need...or you will become sicker and suffer some dire consequences.

This is a very old thread. The OP has commented in about two months.
