Need to stop:(

I am sorry for letting you all down, but most of all I let myself down. I relapsed last night and haven['t stopped yet. I am going to try to tonight. This is so hard posting and I am so disgusted in myself, but I made the choice to use, I felt it coming. I am so sick now and surrender. Please forgive me please.

Gizzy... I am praying for you, as I know your pain and your struggle. Thing is you did something right you stopped and came here. I am glad you didnt let the addict in you take you out any further. I wish you some peace and comfort at this very vunerable period. Hang tough, and try to get into some form of aftercare.

Just hang in there buddy. You know what you need to do so get it done. Don't apologize to us. We have all been there before. Like mentioned above, you know your triggers and have to find a way to avoid them or to work through them. If a trigger is unavoidable you have to figure out what you can do to try to ease the craving such as going for a jog, lay in a dark room listening to some music while doing breathing exercises, go to the driving range and take it out on the balls, go to a meeting, anything that you can think of to get your mind in another place. You have it in you Giz. You have already proved that.
Please know that we will be here for you no matter what. We are one big family here that will never turn our backs on each other. I know it's hard to admit a relapse to everyone but that is the first step to get back on track. It proves that you want to work through this and we will be here for you every step of the way.
You mean so much to this forum. You have helped so many people. Use the all of the knowledge that you have to help yourself get through this. Dig deep and pull out that inner strength that you have. It's in there. You know it and so do we. Chalk it up as a lesson learned and move forward. You can't dwell on the past, just learn from it and fix what can be fixed.
You can do this buddy. If you need anything at all, even if you just need to vent, give me a call. You know I'm here for ya no matter what.

I know the relapse is horrible to face.  But you are strong and I hope you see that. You have admitted you fell.  You admitted that a mistake was made.  Most importantly you were honest to yourself an are not afraid to start over.  Good work.  You are an inspiration..
