Hi bt500. Welcome to recovery! Be kind to yourself in early recovery and yes take baby steps. We did not get this way over night,so it's going to take awhile for somethings in recovery. (((((((((((((Huggies))))))))))))))

Immunity:85:
We have seen the truth demonstrated again and again:
"Once an alcoholic, always an alcoholic."
Commencing to drink after a period of sobriety,
we are in a short time as bad as ever.
If we are planning to stop drinking, there must be no reservation of any kind
nor any lurking notion that someday we will be immune to alcohol. :D

Patience
Just try it. Drive with an easy rein; don't worry;
seek and be with the Group as much as you possibly can.
Coast along with us, work with us,
and you will gradually find fear being replaced by confidence,
doubts taking wing; depression being replaced by happiness
and faith in yourself and others and in the future emerging
into the full light of everyday living.
Just try it; keep dry, think. . .a little plea for help from some greater Power.
Have patience and you will get the answer to real living and happiness.
Then try to return just a little of all that has been given you
by trying to pass it on to others who are sick and need help.
It's the road to the top of the mountain--into the sun--and it's yours for the effort.

Just wanted to thank all of you. In the short time I have joined this board, you have been of so much help to me. I am home alone at this time, and all I could think of is not to get a drink. I logged on instead and I am feeling better about myself again. Day 3 for me and I am still sober.
