Well, I commend anyone for joining the military.

There's a saying in AA: "Wherever I go, there I am." What this means is that there really is no geographical cure. i.e. If you're a real alcoholic, you can't run away from it.

I can't diagnose you JanitorKing, as can noone else. But I encourage you to think about this observation made by a well-known doctor who treated over 10,000 alcoholics:
"To them, their alcoholic life seems the only normal one. They are restless, irritable and discontented, unless they can again experience the sense of ease and comfort which comes at once by taking a few drinks..."

If you determine you feel that way when not drinking, continue to seek recovery. You don't have to live that way. Even if you drink, or don't drink, keep searching for the answers. Never give up. You will find them.
