Hi again MM

A lot of people have trouble around the 90-100 day mark.

It's long enough to forget the worst of our addiction, yet not quite long enough to really see the full benefits of sobriety.

There really are some great tips here;

I also like this link for making a recovery plan.

I understand you're going to AA but sometimes it can help to have a template to work off and maybe even identify just where the trouble lies?

If you haven;t gotten a sponsor to work the 12 steps that might be something else to consider?

I also wonder what ever you've changed apart from the not drinking. Building a sober life you can be happy in is pretty fundamental too.

In the end, no matter what you decide to do, I think the bottom line is you have to stand firm and have faith that things will get better.

They absolutely will - as long as you don't drink again.

There's endless support here, as you know. Use the site and the support here as much as you like
