Way to go, Nancy!
It's tough enough as it is, but add health / mental factors to the mix?

It's one of those evenings where a drink (a drink? - hah!) sounds so goddamn good.
This morning I was telling my husband how the acupuncturist I was seeing early last year said he could smell alcohol coming out of my pores when the needles went in. Good god - that's a fuckload of booze.
I'm thankful I often have those sealed-the-deal moments that cement my resolve to never, ever go there again.

today makes 10 weeks booze free for me. that’s about 9.5 weeks longer than I’d gone in the past few decades.
actually, truth be told, there was one hiccup....I got drunk by myself one night.....at home, just me and the dogs....woke up with a shitty hangover the next day. I’m still gonna take credit for 10 weeks. the one screw up just reinforced what I’m trying to rid myself of.If I had known then what I know now...

I’m still gonna take credit for 10 weeks. the one screw up just reinforced what I’m trying to rid myself of.then it wasn't a screw up , it was a necessary lesson to learn.hear it often. someone in aa not far along in the steps drinks again. gets filled with the guilt and shame etc.My standard reply is did you learn you are in fact an alky? no question you are? if so then do not be concerned about doing what an alcoholic does, its our natural way of being, being sober is not natural to us .if thats what it took to learn this incredibly valuable information about ourselves then so be it.Post edited by mickeyrat on_____________________________________SIGNATURE________________________________________________

I felt some guilt but I was more pissed at myself.

Hey guys.
Thank you so much for the wonderful comments & cyber hugs for my anniversary. Im a miracle because I have seen so many people succumb to this disease & people In the rooms & in my life gave up on me. I was a lost cause.
I just changed one day, I had surrendered to a higher power possibility.
WOBBIE- you are doing great. Relapse is common. I got sober in March but drank on Nov 12 & cried the whole day. I changed my date to Nov 13. It's a personal choice, we each walk our own road. Proud of you.
I'll be going now, I'm still in a dark struggle, so when I beat this monster, I'll be my old self. Take care everyone. You are all special people. 🥰❤✌0 -
Hey @njnancy, you are in my thoughts. I know you’ve been struggling. Please feel free to DM me if you want to talk. Please take care, and know that others are thinking of you and wishing you the best."What the CANUCK happened?!? - Esquimalt Barber Shop0
