What about when HALT doesn't work? That day is highly likely to arrive - and I say that respectfully from 21+ mo sober- and having many other tools in my belt (I do "check in" with HALT every morning, assessing everything from sleep to diet to exercise, from the day before) is CRITICAL.

Happy for you on 5 weeks. That was just the beginning for me, and I have learned so much more through my (Very) dedicated AA program that has changed (continues to change) my entire life and worldview as a recovered alcoholic. Others find success with different methods. The key thing we have in common is an active program with multiple facets.

Also - said respectfully- I have viewed giving advice or proclaiming anything like "I've got this figured out!" is toying with disaster.

Keep going and learning.
