A theme present in many of your previous posts. The inability to accept never drinking again.

I get it. You are only in your 20s. I couldn't accept never drinking when I was 20, or even 30. Oh yeah, I couldn't accept it in my 40s either. Or when I was 50.

I accept it now though.

For the past couple of years, you've struggled to not drink. Sobriety is hard, drinking much easier. I certainly understand.

When drinking becomes the struggle, I hope you can find your way back.
