:'(  :'(  Noooooooo!!! Sorry to hear about your fall but don't give up. I'm amazed at your ability to remain clean especially at your age. Your 81 days are a huge accomplishment.
Anyway, try to figure out why you fell, try to make barriers to prevent it from happening again and start over. I'm giving you advice that I didn't follow. I had a clean streak and fell and it took me two months to continue trying. I believe that if you have the strength to continue trying despite the fall, you'll be a bigger hero than if you wouldn't have fallen because now there is less of a motivation to continue (you will not be breaking records for a while). If I were you, I would go out with some friends and reward yourself for your accomplishment (they don't need to know why). Try to focus on the positive and learn from this.

Best of luck!

I'm guessing a fall at day 83 (82?) is a disappointment to anyone counting to 90. For me, the fell shmell theorem means that some elusive future goal is not what's important. The recognition of 83 intentional clean days, plus all the other runs of clean that you've had since taking this work on, is a far better vision. Feel good about it; take it as momentum to get back on the horse; know that Hashem is watching over you lovingly. Forget the da**ed chart and take on TODAY.

I fell at 70-something on my first try (not even irresistably; it was even sorta planned out). And then came 150-ish. And now is "I'm not counting days anymore; I don't freaking care about that." If I get to a year with only 2 (or 3 or 4?) falls, I'm still a changed man. That's my personal approach; do what you want with it.

man that sucks.

haven't spoken to you in a while. sorry i haven't been on much, the forum scares me for some reason.

you know two ways to see this

a) i fell after so long

b) i got and 82/90 = 91%. pretty good mark no?

each moment counts. can't believe you made it that far...one day i'll be as strong as you...
