I have been trying to quit and I have been successful so far but another relapse after 3 weeks … Even though I am starting over again I feel I am still optimistic

Same. I had one week and day 8 turned into my reset day. Now day 3. & I truly don’t even know if I have a true addiction. I was at a family gathering & drank wisely…responsibly. Not really even buzzed let alone drunk. I just like to join in when in a social situation. But why?? Why do I feel so drawn to join in when no one is forcing anything on me? I hate feeling weak to this.

Oh same boat as you, I had to leave the household until I feel I have enough will power and strength to handle the triggers. 6 months in and still not back at home... it'll take time but hang in there lady

You need real people besides a therapist and addiction coach. Real live, dirty, scumbag drunken addicts, like us! People you can reach out to and get some advice from people who are going through it too.
If your husband doesn't value you enough to not drink around you, then maybe some big life changes are in order.
