@ashlivesbyfaith: I want to be completely transparent on this account. I have broken my sobriety & I want to talk about it. I recently got married & had a destination wedding in Greece. We invited our closest family members & after the wedding we all went on a virgin voyages cruise. I didn’t realize that positive life events(among other things) can trigger a relapse. I was already feeling very triggered being around lots of people heavily drinking along with feeling social pressure to drink, & also just wanting to celebrate and have a good time on my honeymoon. So I drank some wine & When we returned back home I continued to drink a few glasses here and there. I also decided to try smoking again as well which turned out to be a horrible choice & i ended up having a major anxiety attack, went mute and was panicking on the inside, (won’t be doing that again) But I do have this itch to continue drinking. I am in a completely different place mentally and physically, & am no longer in situations where I feel the need to get black out drunk. I have gotten closer to God tho and I don’t want to feel shame if I do continue to drink every now & then. I know God has forgiven me already & i do want to continue to try to be the best version of myself. I want to know what you think & if you have any suggestions on whether it’s okay for me to drink if I control it & don’t let it take over my life again or if it’s all together a bad idea.. #sobriety #sobertiktok #help

I think it sounds like the lies and delusions we tell ourselves as alcoholics. Not meaning this rude, but just a logical thought from someone who is an alcoholic with many sobriety dates- this sounds similar to my story & my personal experience was a slow snowball effect bc our brains as alcoholics/addicts are wired differently than those who aren’t no matter how much recovery we have under us or our relationship with God. It’s like the little devils whisper & it’s not from God. But go with your gut instinct on this one. ♥️

Sis I broke my sobriety too last month 😭 in a Royal Caribbean Cruise. I was with my family and had some wine at dinner. I think that we can drink in moderation, 1 or 2 glasses, not getting drunk.

I think it’s okay for you to try, don’t shame yourself for wanting to try. We are human. It’s your life your decisions. Right now you are choosing this, if you ever want to go sober again, YOU CAN, you know you did it before, you can do it again. ❤️

Transparency is a huge part of recovery and I have 306 days and still wonder if I might someday be in a place where I can drink moderately. Probably not, but the thoughts are there. I think it differs for everyone but sharing is the most important part! 👏

Relaps is part of recovery. You start over, you work hard, just as you have been. You can do this. You are strong. You are capable of this. You deserve this change. It’s important to you and you can do it.

I know this is probably going to be an unpopular opinion - but vowing never to do something again wasn't something that works or will ever work for me. For sure - I definitely had an intense wake-up call, needed a hard reset, and will have to always establish clear boundaries with myself. But rehab didn't do much for me but pmo, and I eventually needed to break free from being defined by my sober days and this constant pressure of verbiage such as "you can't just have one", "addiction is addiction no matter what", "how many days do you have" and "relapses". Feeling like a failure and the heavy anxiety of being disappointed if I ever have a sip of a drink is extremely weighing. Just MY experience.

I don’t have advice or suggestions. I have encouragement. You r ur best expert if u r willing to be totally honest with yourself. I found recovery through a divine intervention called prison. I was totally abstinent from all substances for 23 years. During that 23 years I learned many things Long story short: If you realize u have issues with alcohol, I would encourage you to remain alcohol free for whatever time it takes you to learn to live each day without thinking about it, and for however long it takes for you to learn to be happy with others, and alone. You may just find that you dont want it at all. Anyway its a great question and you a

I also have wondered if I can go back to drinking in moderation but love… it’s never worth risking your life being destroyed over a substance. A SUBSTANCE. Vs. your life. If it’s a question of what if I say keep up the sobriety🙌🏼you’ve got this!

If one put this much thought & and has questions this strongly around their drinking, it's something to consider. "Normies" don't have to wonder if it's OK to drink. I am 15 years sober and CLEARLY understand I will never drink like a normal person. I was not interested in that; fitting in, being comfortable in my skin, abating fear....those were my concerns.

I was almost 2 yrs sober when I thought I could have a glass of wine. It spirals fast and almost killed me. That was 2.5 years ago.. I know myself and my brain better it’s not worth it. If you can, more power to you. The joy and peace I have in recovery is better than any glass of wine.

if you are in a better place and think you can do it, then more power to you! but my advice is don’t play with your life like that, it’s just not worth it. you might be able to be fine doing it in moderation for a week, a month maybe a year but eventually it might catch up to you and you do not want a repeat of everything you’ve worked so hard to heal from!

I broke sobriety as well. I thought I could drink casually , then drove home buzzed (over an hour drive home 😭). I have accepted that alcohol is not for me. I make bad choices under the influence. Follow your gut instinct and go with the flow. No one is perfect, we all make mistakes and here to learn and grow ✨🙏 whatever you decide is good 😌

Awww you’re not alone. I just did holiday in Ibiza with 6 months sober and decided I wanted to fully live in the moment. I got home and want to continue on the sobriety journey. I think it’s about being truly honest with yourself. Can you do every once in a while or do you have to abstain? That’s what I have to tell myself. I break it down by day. Sobriety isn’t a one size fits all. You don’t have to feel guilty because others make you feel guilty about it. It’s your life and no one else’s ❤️I hope this helps.

In the end only you can decide what’s right for you. Personally moderation isn’t something that’s possible long term for me, but maybe it could be for you.

I have had similar thoughts and even tried. I did a 3 week Europe vacation and had the smallest amount of wine at the occasional meal. I was so proud. Then on last day (it was the big power outage in Spain)…I bought and snuck vodka and ended up stumbling drunk and ruined all my good feelings from trip 🥺
