Leslie, today is a new day. Let yesterday stay in the past and don't be too hard on yourself. You can choose to make that just a one time slip--you don't need to get caught back up in the cycle of addiction. I think everybody occasionally wants a little bit of an escape--even people who are not addicts sometimes do it--it is very human to want to ease your pain.
It is going to be tough for you to face your relationship issues and stay in recovery. At times like that I have to redouble my focus on recovery and stay active in my recovery program. The more I focus on recovery, the less I think about abusing drugs. Do you have a plan for how you are going to stay clean?
