good for you for not picking up, dm. we are uncomfortable when we are sober and not thinking about a drink when our lives have always had the drama associated with drinking. maybe having a healthy fear of alcohol and all that comes with it may help. make sense? moderation and balance is the key. you need not go to extremes. we/i are complicated people.
