Dear Whyme,
You didn"t mention how you got clean and sober the last time, but I also suggest you do the same thing this time. for me the only way so far I have gotten sober and stayed sober is with AA. It took me a while to get it, meaning I was drinking every few weeks, but now I have 10 months sober, and feel better than I ever have in my entire life. I have found the fellowship in AA so supportive, and have found a great sponsor, and have learned ways to not drink. I did try a few different meetings until I found one I was comfortable with. Now I can't imagine how I lived before. Never imagined I could be this happy, not that my life is easy, actually I have several very good reasons to drink. Drinking though never helped solve any of my problems, just temporarily numbed the pain, and eventually made the problems worse... Best of luck, you have nothing to lose going to an AA meeting. S
