Never give up! Staying on SR is a great start. Make a plan that you can stick to. Figure out what your triggers are and how you will handle them next time. Join the 24 hour thread to stay accountable. Come on here and post for support BEFORE you drink. We're all here to help each other. Welcome back!

Thanks hope! My triggers are thinking it will be ok this time! It always ends in disaster!

I'm glad you're motivated to stop drinking.

Welcome back. :) I'm so glad you have decided to stop. My plan is going to SR multiple times a day, staying as busy as I can and writing down all the positive things about being sober and all the negative things about drinking. Anytime I think about wanting a drink, I look at my lists and/or come here. It has helped a lot. You're not an idiot and you can do this! We're here for you. *hugs*

Better have something in place for when you aren't busy, or when you're bored. Or frustrated. Or depressed. Or anxious...

Get my point?

There's more to recovery than putting down the drink.
