Your story also has many parallels with mine. Doesn't sound fun when it's all written out, does it? I pray we ALL stay sober & have the lives we dream of. (((praying)))

I don't think you've hit reverse tolerance, but I could be wrong. There was a time I could drink like a fish. Even close to 3/4 half gallon in a night. Eventually, it takes less amounts. I'm glad you've made the decision to not go back!... I hate alcohol & how it destroys peoples lives! I'm glad your going to AA & have sponsor. I've been to hundreds of meetings in the past, had sponsors. I learned many great tools there. If I feel my other tools & support isn't working I may go back one day. Hope you sleep good.
