There Are A Million Excuses

Keep coming back. It works. Do you need an excuse for not attending meetings? Just write to me, and I will send you as many as you need. These are excuses collected from people who have relapsed. Some are amateurish, such as I saw one guy leave a meeting and go directly to a bar. This is silly, since it doesn't mention that the other 89 people who were at the meeting went home and stayed sober. If you continue with meetings, you are likely to remain sober. If you discontinue meetings, there is a high risk of relapse, regardless of how good your excuses are.
