You did it for six weeks, and made a decision to go back to drinking.
You said you crave a drink....but, aren't addicted or believe the disease concept.
But, you have cut down, and haven't been drinking as much since posting here.
Everyone has shared their thoughts, ideas, experience, strength and hope.
The question remains though, are you going to follow doctors orders?
Your choice.
Great debate it is and really learning a lot . Am reading some objective writings on AA now as my interest sparked by others on here.
Yes cut back a lot this week
Get bloods back Mon
Going to try the one day at a time approach. Weekend I do lots of social things so harder to avoid nice drink with friends.
Thanks for your concern
