Hey all. Was doing well for a bit, and then I gave into my addictive voice, and went thru a whirlwind month or so... Full of binging, hangovers, Shame, guilt and Regret. I've let alcohol and drugs take over my life again, what little life I have left in me. I didn't follow thru with any of my plans I had in place to help me stay sober. Back at square one, sounding like a broken record yet again....

Remember that it is only failure when you give up trying. Also, the definition of insanity is doing the exact same thing over again and expecting different results! I think that is enough of the metaphors. You get the point. Keep trying. Maybe that plan did not work so try something else. Very few of us have been successful on the first attempt or even the first few attempts. Don't feel shame and guilt, feel resolve. You have spent a lot of time lost in the woods. You can't just walk out in a couple of days!! Oh crap, that was another metaphor wasn't it!! Any way, pull your head back up and try again. Good luck.

I'm back too and i have a feeling it's going to stick this time. We can do this no matter how many times we fell in the past.
