It’s ok..just for today maybe you can find something else to do..I went to AA and found the nicest people..I went to meetings for 5 months and drank when I got home..like I just couldn’t help it..I started craving sobriety chips. I started wanting the 30-day. chip more than I wanted to drink. I wanted to ‘want to’ go to meetings. Nobody said a word as a got one day, two days, 10 days, one day, 3 days and on and on. I think 30 days is the hardest one..I’ll get my 9-month chip on Monday. I felt soooo bad about drinking. Then realized I was doing it to myself. I was causing the agony I was in. This meant I was self-destructing. I turned a corner in my life..after losing my family (I have a son who loves me so much). I stayed sober thru 3 funerals..in 2016 (sis, bro and father). I was ok I thought until 2022. I had started drinking Heineken 0.0 which I believed to be the truth. It isn’t. There is alcohol in it, even if minute. It led directly to my relapse. Almost unconsciously, I bought beer one day like it was the most natural thing in the world. I drank every day for 9 months. I had to stop and couldn’t. I could not stop. AGAIN. I had a built-in forgetter..I got sober in AA. So I had to go!! Had to go or else. My 3 siblings died from complications of alcoholism. I had to go.
