Clipper, 2 months sober is awesome and I'm sure you'll do just fine and beat this addiction . I just want to point out one thing that I noticed instantly and questioned.

then stress kicked in and won the upper hand.
When the stress "kicked in" and you decided to go back to alcohol, what happened? When you woke up the next morning, the stress was still there AND you probably woke up feeling like garbage - that didn't solve a single thing, did it?

I'm not beating you up over it, just pointing out that even if you are under a stressful situation, you'll need to make future plans on how to deal with it in a non-destructive way. Going for a walk, Surfing SR (and whatever sites you love), reading a book..etc etc.

I'm rooting for your recovery.. Keep us updated.
