Hello amber ,
sobriety is possible for all of us , i believe .
Sounds like you've got some good ideas as what to do , coming here , AA , I think the main thing is to not give upon yourself .
Sobriety is the friend of affirmative action , I had to do and be sober rather than "think" myself there .
A slip is horrible for you , i hope you don't let it drag you down and i hope you learn better ways than drinking when the same or similar situation happens again .
Try not to project into the future too much , i used to do that a lot . It's better to keep my horizon close in and try to make the next decision the right one .
Bestwishes, m
