Lou, thank you for sharing your story, it’s good to share positive stories too as it gives us all hope.
I totally agree with all your comments especially the ‘every day’s a battle for them ‘ .
My son is also currently in early recovery and doing well thankfully. But he’s told me how difficult it is, if he strays off the path, stopping meetings and doing the steps with his sponsor, no alcohol, even a little, it’s back to square one.
The ptsd comment also resonates with me, although he’s doing well, I always feel I’m looking over my shoulder.
It’s thanks to all these ladies on the Theresa thread who have lifted my spirits and supported me through this nightmare of addiction. I’ll keep thinking and praying for us all here daily.
Enjoy your weekend my friends, try to find time to be good to yourselves, you totally deserve it.
Much love ❤
