Ah, I see why this snagged me then. My previous experience seemed to imply that the newly abstinent folks were essentially invalids for the first year and therefore shouldn't change anything so as to avoid emotional upsets that could spur relapse...so no dating, no relationships if you weren't already in one, no sex essentially then if you're not in a relationship, no skipping out on your three meeting a week minimum, no moving to a different city, etc....no wonder I got so depressed. lol
I see how that doesn't apply with AVRT though. It doesn't matter what kind of crazy stuff goes down, no matter what I'm never drinking again and I'm never changing my mind. And that's how it should be, trying to build a life free of upsets in order to avoid relapse is insane. So what if someone dies then? You just drink? lol
