Disorganized ramblings below- Definitely don't feel obligated to read.
I'm doing 90 days, for real this time. I slipped today, but not as bad as yesterday bH. Tomorrow will be better. I apologize if I've annoyed anyone by over-posting or reaching out, I'm trying to throw myself into this head-first and start improving.
I joined an SAA group call today (mistaken for a woman at first,which was pretty awkward, but otherwise it went well I think.) Isolation has played a big part in my recent failures, and I'm trying to build a support system so I at least have people to call when things get tough. I always feel like I'm bothering them, though. Most likely because I am. 
I've also been thinking a lot about why I do the things I do. I wish I had solid answers, but I'm sure they will come to me in the long run. Anyways, I'm trying to stay positive and get clean. I hope everyone else is doing well, and has a great Pesach.

Hatzlocha, brother!

Get as much support as you can!

What's "for real" as opposed to what you've been doing before? The more support stuff?
"Vegeta, what does the scouter say about his sobriety level?"
"... It's over NINE-ZEROOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!"
One day... At A Time :-D

Thank you.
Yeah, that and I'm just more committed this time. I have more relying on my success now than in the past.

having more relying on success causes pressure and expectations
