I wanted to drink for a long time after I stooped drinking Dom - I drank for 20 years...I drank all day everyday for the last 5 years...

I drank in response to *everything*.
It took me a long time to not instinctively react that way...but eventually I did

It also took me a while to learn to live sober - I had almost no coping skills - it took me a little while to learn those too....but I did.

The important thing is you're not alone in this - and remember - I think it's natural for most of us to still want to drink, at least for a while - it's what we do in response to that want that counts

stay strong Dom - the day will come when you'll look back at this period as a simple blip in time
