Many here can tell you a familiar story of relapsing lightly at first and within no time being back to drinking the same or more, and plenty scathed.
I also can’t help but observe how easy it is to find every excuse under the sun to “have to” have a drink. For some, weddings = drinking. Others, winning at bingo .. for others, losing at bingo. Having a good day, having a bad day. Celebrating.. mourning. Getting the job, losing the job.
If you want to stop drinking, I encourage you to discard the false idea that ANY circumstance permits or requires alcohol.
