I see you checking in but not posting roll...

If youÂ’re serious about saving your life stop hiding... take your lumps and get in here and do this.
Well, it’s one louder, isn’t it? It’s not ten.

Welcome back!

Glad you came to your senses so quickly, but it does suck that you caved. However, I do appreciate you coming back and sharing your story. It honestly helps me stay quit. If I never saw anyone coming back after they left I would think "Hell, no one comes back saying they caved after they left, they must be doing just fine". But I see just the opposite and it helps me keep coming back every day.

I want you to read Trauma’s intro. Remember him? He was a July ‘13 brother to you like me, Fleas, and Quit.

This shit killed Todd.
You read me?..... killed him.
Yet... he bedded in his integrity and didnÂ’t put himself in the position to offer up excuses. He remained Quit to the end and won over this evil addiction in a fashion most of us will never know.

Excuses are boring.
Yours in particular are so blasé that they’re even more boring.
Drugs/meds/bad place/ mental this-n-that... blah blah blah.

Boring.

In the last 5 years IÂ’ve dealt with the death of family, major illness of a parent, scary financial issues, losing a job, gigantic emergency house repairs, auto accidents, shitty people, asshole bosses, my jaw practically being rebuilt... life sister. Life.

Not. Fucking. Once... did I EVER consider grabbing a can.
Not. Once.
I owned this from the start because if I hadnÂ’t... IÂ’d be dead.
Maybe not yet but this shit wouldÂ’ve killed me to eventually.

Excuses are boring. Stop wrapping yourself in yours.

Sort.
Your.
Fucking.
Life.

IÂ’m not going to welcome you back.
Sorry.
I don’t have it in me to be a “get back on that horse!!” kinda guy.

Now that youÂ’re here...
I think the expectation from you is posting in your new AND old group EVERY day.
Get involved and STAY involved. You stopped posting roll and stepped away from accountability... look what happened.
Posting roll works... do it.
Own it.
No excuses.
I'll add a bit to Apple's post.

Quit. Save the drama for elsewhere. Quit.

Give help. Get help. Don't fight with everyone on this site. You've done it before. Don't do it again. It clearly didn't work last time.

Shane laid out a plan of success. I'd listen.

It would have been 5 years today. Now it's only day 2. Don't let your guard down no matter how much time has gone by. I fell complacent and now I'm paying the ultimate price. I've answered to my new group, answered to my old group and now back on my knees to start over.

This is not defeat, this is a set back. One dip. That was it. But it was enough for me to come back and retake my Accountability 201 class.

500 does feel great! Better get over my fear of heights! Thanks to all of my brothers and sisters here - this shit works and the proof is in the numbers!
Now that's badass! Congrats on hitting five hundo.
Congrats on 5 hundo.

Keep up the bad-assery!!!!
Belated congrats, Cowgirl!
500 is bad ass!
Late for this party! Congrats Cowgirl. You've come a long way in your quit. You seem so much more smarter than you were 500 days ago. I'm discovering a trend, must be that our brains really do repair themselves. Huh?!
I remember how you fought through the drama and kept the quit... Congrates on half a comma sister!
