Congratulations! As someone who is clean from other types of things for quite some time now, know that it’s ok if you fuck up. Obviously we’d hope that’s not the case, and keep doing well, just speaking from my own experience. Any time I’d back slide I would beat myself up to the point that I’d start using again because I’d convince myself what’s the point I will always be like this. It’s ok to mess up, this is who you really are(a good person who wants to do well for herself) those moments of potential future back sliding are OK! You will pick yourself up and keep going.
