This is a "setback". You WILL get over it and overcome! Takes time, give it time!

hi - I am in Sydney too and have seen you around the site and you have been very encouraging, you have been so inspiring to me and I trust you will get back on track. If you want to talk or pm let me know. You are a great guy and many on SR are here wanting the best for you.

Using this experience will make you stronger as
you pick urself up, dust urself off and know that
ur soul purpose in life is to help others still suffering
from addiction.

I know this because I wanted to die 20 yrs ago as
I downed a hand full of pills to end the craziness.

A family intervention and 28 day stay in rehab saved
my life as i was set on a path of recovery to share my
own experiences strengths and hopes of what it was like
before during and after drinking.

I couldnt save my marriage but i sure can be responsible
to save myself a day at a time with a recovery program
in place.

So can you.

Learn something about yourself through this and get back on the horse asap. Don't beat yourself for what you have done because that is just the addict in you trying to keep you feeling bad enough to keep drinking.

Well, it's a good thing that you don't really care about counting days now. While I would never encourage a relapse it CAN put things into perspective for you and they can be built on. All that you know and have learned haven't just flown out the window in a moment of weakness. Let this be a positive step in your progression towards sobriety.

Before we get recovered, the only antidote to pain we know is... to pick up. Recovery is about learning a new way to deal with our pain, disappointments and how to actually feel them. We feel pain so acutely... but we also feel the good stuff... when we recover.

Recovery is soooooo much more than just not drinking. Not drinking is just the prerequisite.... When you are ready, there is a way out, a new way of living...

Hi Lipitor, woke up this morning to read all of your posts on SR, really sorry to hear about your situation. Nobody here is going to judge you so don't feel the need to be sorry. Hopefully you started today stronger and can pick up where you left off.

Hi Lipitor: I did the same thing last weekend. Today I am feeling good and not nearly as bad as the day following my relapse and I think it is because I stopped the relapse after the one day and did not turn it into a four day bender or something horrible like that. Make a concerted effort to not drink today and you will start to feel more hopeful. Make some enhancements to your prior recovery plan. I stepped it up a bit this week by making sure I was busy every single night whether it be at a meeting or at the gym. Whatever works for you. Don't be too hard on yourself. You've done great for the past few months and no one can take that away from you. Good luck!
