AA or SMART Recovery to Sobriety

5 Dec 2018 – I am other than a behaviour of mine – other than a thought or emotion. 10 Dec 2012 - I entered active recovery - started doing something about a habit of mine regarding drinking. I have better mental clarity. Abstinence, initially, was a key. I loved getting 'drunk' - sometimes had just one or two - preferred option was OBLIVION. I exercised, tried to help another and ate reasonably well. "Has this habit cost me more than money?" It did.

Lapse Number 4

Was on 14th June a bottle of Tokay.

I went to an AA meeting and they said I was now on day 2.

I went to a SMART online meeting and they said I was now on day 151 - 134 days plus 3 weeks minus the 4 days I drank. That a lapse is no big deal unless it is sustained or something significant happens.

I LOVE their approach.

I am feeling a lot better, have my head on straight, have just turned 57 and have my whole life ahead of me
