Went nc and didnt break it once? This is my goal to not have to reset the clock I know its normal to relapse but I'm sure there has got to be people who didnt also so I'm curious.

Hi LFH,

I see from your other post that you aren't feeling well, I hope you feel better soon and I am glad your H is taking care of you:) I am not one of the people who went nc once and didn't break it. I think the important issue is to keep focusing on ourselves and face those issues that make us think we need that toxic hit. When I broke nc I needed to ask myself some tough questions and it took me two tries to start the path of committment to myself to leave the drama behind. When I look back at those early days I was a confused bundle of mess. EAS has been a rock for me and the people here have been fantastic in reaching out to me with support. Once I began opening my mind to what I was reading I was able to start looking at me and who I had become and why I chose behaviours that were harming me. It is hard work but I feel if we are determined to become unstuck we can move forward and chose healthier ways to be and think. Take care of yourself LFH:)

Well, I'm only 3 weeks into NC, so I don't know what's ahead, but that FIRST week was absolute hell.
