Carl...I'm so sorry for you that this happened..thankyou for your honesty. You just sent the most powerful message to those of us who have gained a little sober time in how strong our addictions are, and how we must forever remain a step ahead of the game.

I hope you are ok today. Please come back and share with us.

You are a very much respected and admired member of the SR community. Stay close x

Carl,
Hang in there. It gets easier. Do whatever you need to do to get sober again.

I was sober for 16 years before relapsing. I remember the shame and guilt and fear of early sobriety after years of feeling solidly sober.

I've appreciated your posts.

In my prayers right now upon waking.
It could have been any one of us.
I have read the whole thread man, and if love and prayer and hope count for anything you WILL be back here friend.

Carl, it takes hell lots of guts to be so honest.

It also reminds all of us to be always on the guard.

You've helped so many people here.

We are here for you now.

Carl your honestly is poignant.

You have helped so many of us here and give out great advice . I admire your courage and the fact you came here to SR . We are all human and it shows us that even someone as committed and wonderful as you are is only one drink away .

Thank you for sharing . I have even more respect for you and know that you will overcome this .

Much love xx

I'm joining this global prayer / fervent good wishes 'tree' for you Carl. As has been said, please try not to isolate the way I and many others have: that way lies desolation. You don't need to go there.

x Vic

I hope you're feeling better today. I'm not far, pm me for a phone number. I'll meet you somewhere. We can talk about dogs, or whatever. We need you back here. I need you back here.

Be well, my friend.
