Great post. No apologies required.
Some people decide to tell their AV "NO, Never" and go on about their sober lives.
Others need to work on strengthening their sober self so it is easier to tell that AV "NO" day after day after day.
I find myself in the second category. I need to improve the sober me so that my AV's persistent bleating never wins.
best of Luck on your journey!
