Sorry to read that you are struggling. Part of the issue might be that you don't understand your problem. Addiction and willpower are mutually incompatable.

Addiction has a solution. You might be applying it incorrectly.

This is why relapses are so serious. The undermine the work we've done and make it extremely difficult to get back on track because our addiction has used the relapse to get its hooks back in us.

But you got to 16 days. You can get there again. But only by recommitting to not drinking and finding the support you need to meet that committment.
