How to use "Re-lapsing" in context?
What is re-lapsing? It's a term used to describe a relapse in a person's recovery. It describes a situation where a person who has been sober for a period of time begins to experience alcoholic behavior again. This may include drinking more than they used to, having drinks outside of Beverage Service hours, or returning to drinking rituals from their past.
It can be scary to think about a relapse, but it's important to remember that relapse is not caused by anyone, and it won't mean that you're a bad person. Everyone experiences relapse at some point in their recovery, and it is only a temporary setback.
