That you’re powerless and everyday is a struggle. Maybe it’s just my journey, but my unhealthy relationship with alcohol comes into play when I’m stressed in life and have poor coping skills or don’t feel like I’m around people I can talk to. Most days aren’t too difficult when I’m in a good place, but that’s when it can get dangerous to think that it means I don’t need to worry about being mindful about using substances again. Also, I think the “powerless” mentality just doesn’t sit with me. I’m making these choices, I’m the one in control. I’ve got the power to say no. And if I relapse, it was because of a single moment of weakness and not because I’m weak or the alcohol is more powerful
