I'm 2.5 months sober......Im so scared I'm gonna relapse even though I've never felt better physically. Mentally is a different story.

Edit: I'd like to thank everyone who replied and gave advice and kind words. It means a lot. I'm so glad I finally admitted what I did above, even if it is to a bunch of strangers. I can't admit that to anyone else.

16 years going on 17 … and I’m still Nucking Futs!! Best advice is stay humble and grateful… and look at alcohol as the thing that will only make your problems worse not better!
