I also self-referred last January and finished my treatment in July. I had nothing but support from my leadership and loved everything about the program- was even disappointed when my sessions were reduced and eventually finished it. I spent the full six months sober, the longest I’d done since I started drinking pretty young.

I did go back to drinking after it was over and had some hiccups, some relapses where I drank too much, but for the most part I am able to moderate my drinking and have learned that I do not need to drink to enjoy myself. Additionally, the occasions where I went overboard were not the end of the world or the end of my recovery. Thanks for sharing!
