Antabuse has its uses, but it should only be seen as a short-term fix. Glad to see you back, Chef, but I’m sorry to read of your ongoing issues. My ex-wife was a chef and said drinking was a big problem. I’ll say again is it worth moving into another type of chef job on terra firma until you’ve achieved some long-term sobriety? The stress and exposure to alcohol are clearly a factor.
Yeah, its hard not to be tempted with my work situation, I work on a yacht so their is 2 fully stocked bars never more than 100 feet away from me, about 200 bottles of wine, and I have my own cooking wines and liquors in the galley 24/7. It's not the job for me though that makes me drink, its me. And if I quit this job, do something different on land would still have to drive past a liquor store everyday so its something I need to dig down deep inside to want to be sober for me and my life
