I want to apologize for my rambling post from this morning. It came out all wrong and not how I meant for it to.... I fought the good fight for 97 days and then one slip which could have taken me out. I went for a jog and going to an AA meeting with a girl from my aftercare. I'm not perfect but want to continue to fight the good fight. I just keep thinking of how awful it felt to drink and good it feels to be sober. I'm going to forgive myself and move forward. I have a few thoughts in my head from the responses from this morning that were so helpful.

Hopefully someone can learn from my struggle. I plan too..... I'll keep you posted.

Hi Ach. I read both threads - and I'm glad you came here to talk about what was going on. No apology needed - & you weren't rambling. It's how we are in early recovery - emotions all over the place.

I'm one of those who needed further proof that I couldn't touch the stuff. I had 3 yrs. once & threw it away for 'just a nice glass of wine'. It was many years before I got my life back. You haven't let the slip turn into a binge, & you stepped up to admit what happened. I think you'll be even more determined now. We are with you.
