I haven't suffered from alcoholism but there was a few years where I drank most days. I knew I had a problem when I would rub my mouth and immediately crave a bottle of wine or tequila. It was like a twitch.
I don't drink much anymore out of fear of mixing with the meds. Doesn't stop me from drinking, I just drink much less.
Good luck with staying sober. You have the ability, don't get so down on yourself for having a drink. You can learn from mistakes.
