Hi Ruth. Glad to have you. I am sorry you drank after 6 months. It's great that you are trying again. Sobriety is so worthy. Visit this forum often and read read read.

Hello Ruth. Good to see you are here. First off I agree with Natalie, Read read read. Secondly try not to beat yourself up to much about the slip. Just looking at the fact your here and I assume your starting over is a great sign. One day at a time. I try to remind myself about why I'm sober now. That is usually enough but there are days I need to call on my friends for support and I surround myself with other sober people or take in some activities that there is no access to anything. Enough rambling. Good luck to you.

I can relate to the relapse! I was sober 13 years and relapsed. Eight years later I am getting sober again. Today I have 51 days. You can do this! This is a wonderful site for tons of information and support; I think it has made a big difference for me.

Hi and welcome Ruth - there's a ton of support here.

I recommend you look around - maybe join the Class of January thread?
