Hi guys

@thatguybow

Hi, bow! I do really want to thank you for reaching out to the community here at 7 Cups.

As someone who has battled addiction in my past, I am aware of the feeling of being back at square one. I can tell you (not as advice, however) that for myself, a counselor once told me to focus on all of the time that I was clean before the relapse. That the days put together of clean-living actually did (and still do) mean something. Our brain's may want to tell us (and we certainly do feel like it too) that we are back at square one, but I feel that any progress (especially with addiction recovery) is never a straight line.

Anyway, that's about all I feel I can say as a listener and fellow community-member. We do have other active listeners, members, and therapists. The latter of which may especially help you along your journey. Hang in there--I mean that. :)
