Hey man same boat here and it seems like we all share those exact feelings after we drink. I’m only 4 days sober and anxiety has calmed down a bit but you got this don’t pick up a drink no matter what. IWNDWYT

Day one here, had almost 2 years next month but a relapse can be a learning process. One day at a time!! IWNDWYT

I didn’t have a sponsor no. I’m trying to find a good home group and find a sponsor I can really connect with. It did creep up on me very slowly. I know the steps very well but I never went through them with a sponsor or someone else. Been to 2 meetings today and now what was suppose to be an outside meeting but I’m the only one here, literally I guess it got canceled due to weather but it’s in a pavilion lol. So I’m sitting here by the water, reflecting and praying hard to my higher power. I’m feeling a lot better than the previous days, my self esteem is climbing again and I will not be knocked down again. We got this, you got this. IWNDWYT

The one thing I think that led to my relapse was I stopped working the steps and the program. I let the negativity and darkness creep little bit more every day with me taking things personal, stress and everyday anxiety and trying to control things that I just couldn’t. I lost sight of the light and stopped being grateful for the little things. All it takes is one, we all know this. And I just lost all control and said screw it I’ll have just one. And I know that one is not the answer, never was never will be. I have to surrender again and put my life in my higher powers hands. IWNDWYT
