Hey everyone. I don't know how I got off this thread. Roads - I hope you haven't had a smoke!! My husband and I actually got. Into a big fight tonight over his smoking. And emgreen I hope you're not still isolating. I've been there and it's an hard habit to break. If I don't stick to a schedule I'm in my pj's all day. Everyone else on here you are all in my thoughts. I just wanted to share - and emgreen known this- is I got a 12 step call last night. A good friend in AA rang at 1am drunk out of her mind after picking up a 9 month chip. She has soooo much to lose. Her parents have custody of her kid, she's being monitored by attorneys and Dr's out the wazoo. We just talked the day she relapsed and not a word about cravings. This idea had been in the back of her head for a few weeks - just a night of drinking and no one has to know. So, she was not able to call when it got hard or before picking up the first drink. She didn't have a schedule and had a lot of spare time on her hands. She was going to mtgs and therapy but couldn't get honest and ask for help. Maybe if she had been filling her time with exercise, volunteering until she gets a job and asking for help this could've been avoided

Take Care and please remember we all have to be in guard dealing with addiction.

Tnt. ♥
