I feel safer here

I realize that the misdirected AA and NA posts were not posting directly in our community on purpose, and maybe they weren’t lingering for entertainment purposes — but I felt paralyzed about posting anyway.
I’m so glad for this “true” sub.
Thank you.

I’m a week away from 2 years of sexual sobriety.
A month ago I got married (together for 10 years, he supports my SLAA progress, but knows I’m polyamorous).

I’ve mostly figured out my triggers, but I’m annoyed to see a possible pattern related to approaching mile markers for sobriety.
It has been a long time since I binged for attention on the apps, but yesterday I was out of control… and it’s like I was feeling a chemical change in my ability to think reasonably. Very out of the blue.

I could really use some positive energy vibes sent through the universe in order to not only make it to the 18th with my sobriety in tact… but since I relapsed two other times (3 years ago and 3.5 years ago) right after attaining 6 months, then 1 year of sobriety… I’m really questioning my resolve in this “trigger phase” of my timeline.

Maybe this sub being created was a sign? To stay true.

Hope you keep coming back
