I sometimes don't get the use of the term 'triggers'.
I drank because I wanted to, I chose to drink. I don't drink now because I choose not to.
There were situations in which I drank and then regretted drinking and I would try to convince myself that somehow the situation was the cause, the trigger but that , in hindight perhaps, was me making excuses or rationalizing my choice(s) to drink.
As a purposeful nondrinker, I now can't really imagine what I would term a 'trigger'. I have made up my mind to not drink, I no longer want to.
Sparky you have a great list and sound resolute as all get out, good on you , you got this!
I like philo too, so I tend to focus on concepts and such and that may spill into 'just' semantics at times, then again if it didn't what fun would philo be ?
wish you well
and always feel free to disregard any ramblings from this quarter
