It seems that the truth is I am a binge drinker, it is sometimes easy enough to go a day or two, but then I start feeling like rewarding myself with a drink for doing so good, and "one is always to much, and a whole bottle is never enough." Nearly any time I've had that first one after say 5 days of sobriety I go through a few days of drinking. I really need to have the mentality to stay away from that one. I feel the same way, that thin ice feeling. Stay strong and I will too!
