Alcoholics are always at risk of relapse, no matter how long they have been sober.
Today’s daily reflection is meant to help alcoholics stay mindful and aware of the risks associated with relapse.

It turns out that I was a very well-adjusted, high functioning alcoholic. My life wasn’t perfect but it certainly worked for me and my family.
Today many people have found sobriety in other organizations or through their own personal recovery efforts – sometimes with the help of therapy and medication.
If you’re struggling to find your way at this point in time, know there is hope!
