Relationship troubles in the extremes does have the potential to impose these thoughts about drinking. Will I cave in? I doubt it. Just due to the fact that my last relapse caused all kinds of troubles beyond belief in my eyes, and would never want to be there again. I just felt like I had to communicate this, and not stay quiet about it.
