Hi 100.
I understand it s impossible to ignore the feeling of missing good times, and if those were linked with alcohol then you ll miss it.
But if you think about it this is not news. There are other things that can be missed but not done - childhood, hanging out with far away friends, or lost relatives, or things we can no longer do because of physical limitations.
It’s the same with drink. It has to be approached as “I just won’t do it now because it’s not a possibility”, and forever is just a sequence of nows.
