You posted this on the nicotine board Lee, so I'm assuming it's cigarettes that you have relapsed on? Or is that you want too? I'm a little confused. If you're feeling this way after 5 years, something's not working in your life and you need to do some soul searching to find out what it is.

I can't tell you any other way to do than to go to meetings, either AA or NA, because that's all I know how to do when nothing else makes sense in my life. I have to talk to people who know where I am and where I've been.

You can keep posting here, it does help to talk here and get feedback but maybe try the alcohol board or pain pill board..lots more people read there.

Whatever it is, it isn't worth losing 5 years over. Get some help buddy. Talk to someone.

It's good that you haven't relapsed..the first thought of doing it isn't your fault, the second is. Do you have anyone close to you that you can talk too? If you can't get to meetings, what about counseling? Have you thought about why you want to drink and smoke? What is going on in your life right now that you think smoking and drinking will make that better? Is losing your clean time really worth that?

Please, post on the alcohol board. There are so many wonderful people over there who can walk you through this.
