I had promised my family a hundred times that I would stop, and I always started again within a month. What was different here was that nobody scolded me. The withdrawal week was managed with medicines so I could sleep and eat, and after that the real work began — understanding why I drank at all. My wife was included in the sessions from the second week, which I resented at first and am grateful for now. Fourteen months later I still attend follow-ups, and I no longer plan my day around a bottle.
