A dramn on the way out

It's now about seven and a half weeks since I had the sense to stop drinking alcohol again and I really feel good within myself. I still worry that I will trip up and make the same mistakes but as time goes on it gets less and less likely. The worry will hang about for a while. After all, I was totally alcohol-free for thirteen months and decided to celebrate being sober for that period with - that's right - three days on the piss.

We live and learn. Sometimes we have to learn the same thing again and again - and again, purely because the addiction can literally take a lifetime to deal with. Sometimes it is never dealt with. I may die gasping for a drink.

A dramn on the way out won't do any harm, will it?
