A relapse WILL happen, no matter how hard you try, this is a fact and should be recognized as such. I think that feeling scared or remorseful for it shows you are working towards recovery. Recovery does not mean you will not fall and failing isn't failure, it teaches you. A baby doesn't learn to walk without falling multiple times and we do not scold them for that. A good leader will recognize this and hopefully help you thru it. You can only learn from your mistakes and grow with that knowledge.

Try group therapy for the problem. Wait til you feel comfortable enough to enable some form of trust to let it out

Yes, Being honest is the Best Choice! They will support you during this time. I had to go to multiple rehab facilities to get clean. I been clean for 2 years now. No more binge drinking or taking a lot of pills like I use to do.

I think being honest is the best choice. I have been clean for over 10 yrs and relapsed a few times. I felt better once I talked about it with my dr and psychiatrist . I was scared at first telling them but once I did I felt a weight lifted off of me
