I like what Dee said....be prepared to do whatever you need to do in order to not drink. Additional support is needed perhaps? Counseling; more meetings; checking in on SR more often; seeing your doctor/psychiatrist? Sucks you got a DUI but at least you aren't dead. You get a chance to talk with your children about your DUI and how you are going to change your life. Dead doesn't give you that option. I always keep the saying "jail, institutions, or death" in my head. Those are my options should I choose to drink.
