Welcome back SDH. What do you think you might do for a plan this time around? Hope we can help you build one. As you realized, not drinking is not a plan. A plan has steps ( and I don't just mean AA steps ) and actions you take each and every day. For some that means meetings. For some it is therapy or counseling. Others spend a lot of time with self paced methods or even SR itself. Whichever you choose though, it will be work and you will be uncomfortable at times. The reward is well worth it though.
