Hey FD.
No name calling? Party pooper. Just joking. Here's a link posted by you i think awhile ago that makes for some inspiring reading i think, and also discusses relapse prevention techniques. Hope you don't mind me posting it here.

Good idea...I'll chime in. And thanks for starting this thread.
I don't know how to prevent relapses. Honestly, I don't know why I'm sitting here SOBER on what is now the 35th day in a row!! I am already terrified that I'll drink on vacation in November. Just writing the sentence seems like a self fulfilling prophecy! I only hope and pray that I remain strong and remember how hard..damn near impossible it is to quit (each and every time) and that being drunk is only fun for a few minutes...the rest of it is a freaking nightmare.
I think it's all about choice. You cross your arms and stomp your foot on the ground and tell/think to yourself..I'm NOT drinking no matter what!!!! End of story!
That is the only reason I'm still sober today...well that and I am enjoying not being hung-over or feeling dog crap everyday. Oh and I'm saving money and relationships..but that's it!

No more for me, please. Sake, I know what you mean re vacations...it's like all the usual rules and constraints of life go out the window. But think about what we'll gain by not being weighed down by hangovers & obliterated for large stretches of time in an alcohol induced haze...

Laughing and having fun. Sobriety and recovery should be about having fun and laughing at ourselves. I know I have made a few mistakes with some situations as of late. But I am over it all. Sobriety should be fun. If not than what is the point of it all. So relapse prevention for me tonight. Is reading books. Watching movies. I know there is a lot tension right now in this forum. But a family gets upset at each other at times and we come back together. It's hard to know at times how to convey feelings towards others on here. And at times we might disagree with each other. Let's work towards helping each other out when we are down. I have failed a few times on here. I apologize for that. I want to love this new gift of life that sobriety is. Let's have fun with thisStarted living again 2/7/2015
