Well, apparently you need to go back to the first step. The first step IS acceptance.
If you're not ready, then why did you start AA? Why did you come to a sobriety forum? There is no halfway with us. If drinking is a problem, the solution is to not drink.
There is no gray area. Romancing the drink and the euphoric recall cannot be dwelled upon. That's when it's time to do something to change the thought.
Talking to people while they're drinking makes me uneasy, but not because I miss it. It makes me uneasy because they don't make any sense.
