Acceptance
I have had to accept today that I cannot drink alcohol again, not today not tomorrow, not next week, not next year next decade or ever again for the rest of my life.
This 2 months relapse I have had has been quite literally hell. I am going to draw a line under it and move on.
Anyone contemplating ‘just one drink’ don’t do it. It’s never just one drink for an alcoholic and once an alcoholic always an alcoholic.
I look forward to seeing this year out happy and sober.

After ten and a half years sober, I know for a fact, if I picked one drink I'd be back where I was before I quit in short order.
Ten years may seem like a long time sober, but I don't look at it that way.
I've got one day, today. And now I have the choice not to drink. That choice was taken away from me when I was heavy into it. I had to drink.
Now I don't. And I wish the same for you.
