Hi.
I think you ideas are helpful if continued. Reading many posts here also contribute to identification and help when the sobriety path gets rather bumpy.
For much more help in recovery I needed much more than not drinking. I a long time ago joined a fellowship where people understand the difficulty we have on the path of sobriety and the ways to continue on sober.
I and many rejected certain things that are needed like being honest with our self about our drinking AND accepting the fact I cannot drink in safety one day at a time in a row. Unfortunately many of them are below the grass roots.
I/we need to want to be sober and then the work on changing the drinking person we wanted to become sober. This part of recovery takes time and is challenging at times but the results we experience can be fantastic.
BE WELL
