So I tried getting in touch with a member of AA and he never responded. I got discouraged and went out and drank again. Then a week later he texts me and says “I’ve been thinking about you. How are you doing?” I said “Not good, I’m struggling. It’s tough. I’m doing OKAY but I’m struggling” and he says “Just enjoy the day”.
It didn’t matter he had 9 years of sobriety or I had 9 hours. “Just enjoy the day” the best you can is what I got out of that. We were equals. Not to take anything away from the members of this forum who have 5-25+ years of sobriety, it’s quite an accomplishment. But we are of equals. Just enjoy the day. Because that’s all you have right now.
