Hi Nellie, so sorry to hear of your back but I'm sure that you will be successful again. I worry about similar situations in my life. On my Day 6 I messed up my back and did everything I could do to help it heal without relapsing just when I was beginning to feel good.
Good luck and be well,
Joy
I forgot to mention aftercare. These type of support groups (NA AA) can help greatly in a continued sobriety. I hope you can attend some as they can be life savers.
Hey Nellie.
I don't really consider this a relapse bc what are you suppose to do when your in large amounts of pain? Maybe a set back but no a full on relapse as your choices were limited. Plus as you said, you're not doing as bad amount wise as the previous detox. I'm sure alot of people will disagree with me. But from my opinion, I understand - sh!t happens. All you can do is keep moving. You've got a plan to start clean days again, you know what to expect and that you can do it. Sounds like your mind is in the right place.
Best of luck hun,
Chels
