it's a slip- that's all.
I was reading a book called "Rachel's Holiday" about a girl who became a drug addict from a recreational habit and went to a detox center.
When she gets out, she has a relapse and her sponsor tells her that it is often an important part of recovery. That hangover you gave yourself will pop into your head the next time you're tempted because you've been sober long enough to place the blame on the cause (the drinks!) where it belongs.
I think that's true of all of us. We learn from our mistakes and try again.
We're with you, just so sad. Get back in that saddle- we know you can do it!
big hugs,
