This jumped out at me. What comes across on a computer screen may not always be the whole picture. Yes, many members here have A LOT of sober time, but that doesn't mean they don't don't still struggle from time to time too. I KNOW I DO! The thought of drinking still hits me at the most random times. I even think that maybe once in a while it wouldn't be "so bad". But that's just the stupid Beast lying to me....I guarantee it would be "bad...and so much worse"!!
Don't worry about being a pillar of strength, or a role model, or whatever! Just be honest with yourself, and be you...we all benefit from the variety of posts here. Everyone can't be happy and strong all the time, and it's the honest posts that keep us grounded. Express whatever you feel...I promise, we'll still love you! :h
