I had almost 6 months and drank again....

But in my case, rather than a one-time slip, I consciously decided after almost 6 months that I was OK to go back to drinking as long as I was aware and drank 'responsibly' and made sure things were in balance when I was drinking and I wasn't drinking for "the wrong reasons".

Which actually seemed to "work".

For a little while.

So, you slipped - but you've done the right thing to talk about it and to get it off your chest and now you have a choice to get right back on your path of sobriety or to let this take you back to the place you know you really don't want to go again.

I'm glad to see your choice is to get back on track!
