Hey Paul
Welcome back to SR. It takes guts to admit you have a problem with drinking so well done on that and for not giving up. I would suggest that you simply keep an open mind about recovery. Its important to have a recovery plan rather than simply trying to white knuckle sobriety and being a dry drunk. Alcohol is simply a tool or coping mechanism to deal with underlying issues so you need to address those issues as well as trying to stay sober.
Take simple and small steps. One at a time. Try and figure out a recovery plan that works for you. My advice is to speak with a counsellor who specialises in addictions and see what they have to recommend. Remember to keep an open mind !
Stay close and post as much as you can !
