4months

So I've been sober for 4 months but I've been drinking non alcoholic beer to compensate. Much less often than usual but for a couple days I had a 12 pack of the Nons. The day before that 12 0 percents. Thought things were in the clear but I've been angrier than usual and Ive been feeling like having more of the non beers. Feel fine right now... Just wondering if it gets easier or harder over time. Not relapsed with real beer yet but I worry sometimes that I might break I'll just have one of those days and be right back at it... any suggestions?

I relapsed at 4 months my first go around doing exactly the same thing. I was drinking a ton of NA beers and then I just picked up. I’d be extra cautious, maybe pump the brakes on the NAs, and double down on support from community. Wish I had seen the signs as clearly as you are. I can say with certainty that this is the easier, softer way.

Thanks for the advice I feel like the community support's pretty adequate but I could reach out more I suppose..
