I really dont know why but Ive cracked my first beer in months, not counting the one I had a sip of and poured out a couple weeks ago
Is this a sign that Im regressing again? Dont wanna end up down the road that ends with me in a drunk tank again

Maybe go to an AA meeting everyday for a little while and get back on track?

@zwolfgang we don’t allow talk of drinking except in a recovery way. You need top edit your post or I’ll have to close topic.
Why are you in France?

What do you mean? This is me asking for help, not promoting it in any way
There might be online or phone conferences for AA you can do

If you have a problem with drink, then I’d pour that one that you have down the drain.

AA have been running online 24/7 zoom meetings during lockdown, and at least some of those are still running. They have UK members there too so open to anyone.

Does going for a long walk take things off of your mind? You must be burned out from school, I’m sure
Have you gone to AA before? Just saw it mentioned on the thread

@Beep @mrhappy @Cragger thanks for the suggestions guys, all good ones
Ive never been to an AA meeting but was thinking of going
Luckily I passed out last night before I drank too much and feel better this morning. No more desire to drink. I think Im lucky in that with the meds these days drinking puts me right to sleep so I never have a chance to binge
I am absolutely burnt out, might make a thread about that

Glad you didn’t get too sloshed LOL. I went to a few AA meetings, in the beginning, but some of the people there were too intense so I stopped going. But every chapter is different, it might be good

Haha yeah I cant handle my drink like I used to. For the better
I always got the impression AA was kinda preachy you know? Like give yourself up to a higher power, you cant do this alone blah blah blah
I guess I just like to be in control. But as last night evidenced Im really not, at least not fully
Ill look into it, maybe I can find the right group for me
