I don't have any great words of wisdom for you. Reading your thread just touched me and brought back my own memories. It's a real crappy place to be when you are mixed and trying to stay sober. I stopped drinking a year and a half ago. I tried for years and suddenly was able to stop. Mixed episodes are far worse than depression, imo. You do what you need to do.

I'm glad you are feeling better.
