I completely understand getting sick of meetings - I think everyone does! You want, like anyone would, to think that at some point you're cured and don't need them anymore. I remember thinking myself at various points that meetings were no longer necessary, and I felt like I had completed such an accomplishment. Well... Needless to say, 2 months later I had a really hard relapse and binged for 4 days. Awful.

That doesn't have to be you; everyone is different. I would look for another nmeeting in your area if possible. I agree with what tomsteve said about rationalizing. Six months is huge, and you should be proud!! But sticking to it, for me, is a constant reminder that alcohol is everywhere, and I'm just as vulnerable now as I was right before my last relapse (just with a better understanding of the disease).

You'll do what is right for you, but don't become complacent like I did!!
