Congratulations on coming back. Even tho the letters AA are a turnoff to some it has a better record than many other help groups. The big problem with drinking again I found for myself is it gets harder each time to come back and we're not guaranteed a come back. BE WELL
That sums it up.
I'm careful with using motivational quotes. It's too easy to come off a little too trite. But I saw this yesterday and it really resonates with what you wrote about never giving up:
Effort only fully releases its reward
after a person refuses to quit.
--Napoleon Hill

Don't dwell on past mistakes.
It gets you nowhere.
Be strong and look on the positive.
You have done 11 days, the most clean time in 11 years.
Don't see it as I did 11 days then failed.
I know you can be who you want to be xx
