Clean streak
I was clean for almost a week, kinda involuntarily but hey I was clean at least. Then I said screw it and relapsed in a different area and I just broke a two day streak. I'm honestly just so tired of fighting this, I know that normally I would want to fight and recover, but I just want to lay down and take it at this point. Four years in and I'm exhausted. Sorry if this was depressing.

Recovery is hard. It’s not an overnight process. I’m proud of you for putting in the effort and how much progress you made. Relapsing doesn’t erase that. Sending hugs. 💜
@UndertaleEnjoyerAndy,
Thank you for sharing this. You sharing this part of your experience only made many of us know that it's a common problem many of us face. From what you shared , I get an impression that , its NOT a relapse. It's a slip or a lapse. Many people who try to recover atleast slip almost 3-6 times. And according to research, it says that they have done 90% of there work completely. These are not my words to merely pacify you. And I know it's exhausting to fight the urges, it's damn hard. I get that. SH serves a purpose for people who do it. So unless we are able to sort out a bit of what's troubling us , it's hard to stop. Just know that you are not alone in this. You are not the only one who slip. It's okay , we can do it as much as eventually we can , at your pace. And even if you relapse, it's never too late to be the person you want to be.
I hope this is a tad bit helpful for you. If not , I sincerely apologize to waste your time
Take care
Hug (if that's okay)
