this isn't the place to debate recovery methods....the thread was started by OP for support and encouragement.
that's what
I'm doing....
the work stress will pass ACH, it's not worth ruining your month+ of good sobriety. I hope you consider more FTF support after your IOP ends on Monday, you will benefit from a plan to help you transition from the group therapy you've had to keep sober.
You stated that you feel "a lot better" and will not drink, you want to build on that...doing something else will also help relieve the stress you are experiencing in your job. There are so many options we get to have when we are sober.
keep posting and reading, it really will help you.
oops, I'm sorry I didn't realize you were female...same advice though.
