Trying is great. Trying is key to success. But trying the same thing over and over and failing is failing to see what's not working, if that's what you are doing.
Okay, we know the goal is sobriety, right? Never drinking again. That is your goal, correct?
If yes, then let me ask you, what are you trying? Meaning, what are you
doing, specifically to ensure you succeed at your goal of not drinking?
I looked back on some past posts and you write about your struggles, and what you are thinking about doing (Smart Recovery) but not what you are doing to stay sober.
Would I be wrong to assume you are doing nothing, beyond
wanting to quit drinking? Because wanting to quit, the decision to quit drinking is but the first step.
