Day One
Day One
Well, I relapsed and I did manage to be sober for 2 years. Stress got the best of me and a group of co-workers enabled me to relapse. I cannot believe I did this again. I was so happy, I am grateful that I found sober recovery. This helped me the first time and the people I met on here were so helpful. I am grateful for all of you and I am grateful for my husband, and three kids.

I'm a serial relapser and started over again six months ago. Once getting sober again, all the work I had done previously didn't disappear and I now view my relapse as a reminder that things won't change; I'm an addict alcoholic. Get back on the horse and keep it moving.
Thank you everyone for all your kind words and encouragement. I went to the grocery to the store today and bought no alcohol. I usually would by a gallon of wine, but instead I bought lots of fruits and veggies! I feel really positive today!

Welcome back Brooks!
Well, I am three days sober. Most of yesterday was really good. Near the end I found one trigger of mind and wrote it down in my journal. I really hate being over talked by someone and this person seems to think they have all the right answers. This annoys me and frustrates me. I found some waves sounds in my amazon media and listen to that along with reading some articles on here. I was able to calm down and relax, thank goodness. Today has been okay so far, I am on my second cup of coffee, the birds are chirping and I am relaxed, YAY!

Hi brooks, I'm going to sound like a jerk, but you might want to take a closer look at your statement regarding your coworkers being enablers. I'm not sure its entirely fair to blame them. You went 2 years, that credit is all yours and I'm sure you can do it again. Glad you didn't buy any alcohol at the store.
