Hey forwards - I don;t usually stand in the way of professionals but any advice that it's ok for an alcoholic to drink is worse than terrible advice - it's downright criminal.
Nevertheless don't let your AV use That. Its very bad advice and will land you back in the hospital or worse if you follow it through.
You know that, and thats the bottom line. I'm glad you dumped the beer.
You really need a plan now that you're being sent home. Do you have objections to something like AA?
I mention them cos they are literally everywhere but there are other meeting based recovery groups around.
