Hi @Edna Higgins. I only have my experience to share but I’m more than happy to share that. I have found that by actively using a sponsor & working a 12 step program & seeking a connection with my higher power I can stay sober one day at a time. Through strengthening my spiritual connection, I can get through each day without picking up & eventually reach a place where that desire it completely removed. I don’t know if you have joined a 12-step program but it saved my life.

Yes, my son unexpectedly needed me so I had to go. When he goes back to his Dad’s I will definitely be back!

Don’t use. Go to AA. Get a sponsor. Do step work. Grow your relationship with your Higher Power. Help others. Best relapse prevention skills ever invented! We’d be happy to have you in our fellowship.
