It's easy to forget what we can and can't do.

Recovery/Relapse" If we have relapsed,it is important to keep in mind that we must get back to meetings(support) as soon as possible.Otherwise,we may only have months ,days or hours,before we reach a threshold where we are "gone beyond recall'! Here take my hand, get back up and lets start again.In support and praying for ya!!!!smile   :)

If we have taken the First Step and admitted we are powerless over addiction (incl. alcohol) then we CANNOT be "stupid" when we use. That would imply that we had a choice and made a bad one. We do NOT have a choice if we are powerless.

That's why the next 11 steps are needed. So we don't have to be helpless, even though we are powerless.

And if in doubt about the powerlessness, we can get a clue from the second part of the 1st step. Unmanagability. Admitting unmanagability does not mean we are or were "stupid"...it is really being humble, and when we are honestly humble, we are spiritually receptive...even if we don't know it or appear to fight it all the way.

The value of sobriety does not reside in the fact of time accumulated...the value is in not using and being clean & sober TODAY. I can't "lose" what is already in the past. I can only strive to use what I did learn then and work the heck out of my program today.
