Beatle-
I did a whole 7mo before my slip and I'll be damned if I started back to 0. I technically am at 8mo with 1 slip. I am at 246 AFdays. I just penalized myself a whole week since it took me a whole week to recover even if I didn't drink during that time.
You count the way you want to since this is your journey. I'm sure there are people here at MWO who do slip or over-drink but are ashamed to admit it. That's the ugly side of this disease-embarrassment & humiliation. I almost didn't want to say anything but thought that sharing my experience would only show that even after 7 mo (and you think you're in control) it can just sneak up on you. I didn't let that slip take me back-instead it made me stronger & more determined. And by admitting it it helped me move on.
Hi Janka-welcome aboard!
