It's not that you fell so to speak but that you pick yourself back up and keep going. I know it's hard not to come down on yourself about it but you can't dwell on it, with one foot in yesterday and one foot i. Tomarrow your just pissing on today….worry about today and let yesterday go tomarrow is not here so focus on Today and even if it has to be one hour or minute at a time you can make it

I'm sorry to hear that I relapsed. But that is just one hurdle to overcome you will get through this and I know you don't know me from Adam but if you'd like we could trade numbers and keep our convo a lil more privare
I've done that before and struggled to get back on the wagon. You will get back to it and God will help you through it.
