Hi Autiger,
I am sad to hear you relapsed, you said that the stress of work and the bottle just being there led to the relapse. You sound quite vulnerable in your recovery but sincere about getting sober.
Would this be a good time for you to enter a rehab program, take time out to focus on your recovery. I think hurtful things were said by both parties during the pow wow. Time out is needed. You mentioned that your Mum took time out to heal herself and that was the sensible thing to do and people supported her.
Talk to your sponsor about what happened and what was said. Have you done your 4th step yet?
As long as you don't pick up a drink things will improve, you know that, use this relapse as a Wakeup call to work more on your program of sobriety.
All the best
