One step forward two steps back.

It seems I can pick myself up and go about a month sober then I rationalize one drink which turns into the whole week drinking. I’m in the middle of another bender and it’s awful. Pretty new to this problem.

Welcoem to SR NNab

I had that problem too - but it's a lot harder to rationalise a drink when you're posting & reading here every day

Give it a try - hope to see you around some more

welcome to SR! That was my pattern too. I would make it a month or two and then pick it back up. You really start having a shift in thinking once you get past that point.
