Looking back at your post, it seems the relapse was precipitated by using cocaine....then drinking. And you are asking how to stay sober?

Stay clean. Was staying away from drugs part of your recovery plan? Had you separated alcohol use from drug use? I know I did. I came to SR seeking recovery for my alcoholism. I hadn't used in years. But when I relapsed, it was on drugs, which I thought wasn't a problem that I would encounter. But I found, once an addict, always an addict.

Clean and sober. Attain it and sustain it.
