Fell Off Wagon
 

Hi Guys and Gals, I need to come clean. I fell off the wagon just before thanksgiving after 62 days. I miss how I felt and today is day 1. Again.

I am not beating myself up over this, but I need to get a sponsor and go back to AA. Even as I am writing this I have my doubts.

Welcome back, and have faith that you can do this.

Doubts about what?

Great for you. It takes real guts to come out like that and hold yourself accountable and I know how hard that is. Its so easy to lie or overlook what we have done. Best of luck and try to stay safe. John

About prolonged sobriety. I know I need to not worry about long term success and focus on the moment.

Welcome back Needanewme!! :)

That's right. You can only be sober today. One day at a time. Keep doing that, and you'll have prolonged sobriety. Sort of takes care of itself.

Myself, I accepted that I could never drink again. Ever. Once I accepted never drinking again, any doubts I had regarding the longevity of my recovery went away.
