Several weeks into treatment the glow of my early recovery was shattered when alcohol started going to work on my thoughts. How am I possibly going to stay sober for the rest of my life? If I am at a wedding what will I do when the best man toasts the newly married couple? How about my birthday which falls on St. Patricks day?
Alcohol was attempting to call me back. And I came close to answering the call. All I can say is that over the course of time I was able to develop some pretty amazing coping skills. They would be more than enough to keep alcohols call out of ear range. Trust me on this!
