Yeah, i wasn't implying that i think you're a bad / negative person for using that as one of your tools for staying sober, not at all...
And i kinda thought you would agree with what i meant about preferring to be trying to get something good, rather than avoid something bad...
I kinda hoped that would illustrate what i meant, as i'm sure that is something we all recognise, giving up the drink is about making things better, not just stopping things getting worse...
That was all i meant in the first place - i can see how not drinking to avoid a bad reaction with medication would work, but in my opinion, for me, i would find it to be a fear based thing, and a bit negative - that's not to say it's like that for everyone else, and that's not passing judgement on anyone who might use it as a tool for sobriety...
I certainly didn't think you meant that was the only thing keeping you sober either!
I must be on a communication breakdown today, being misunderstood left right and centre!
