Nothing wrong with starting over - I've had to do it more than a few times myself. Alcohol is tough to give up. But Lenny's right we only have to do it for one day at a time.

What can you learn from what led you to drink? and can you think about what you might do differently next time you're in the same situation of have an urge. They kept telling us in treatment to look at a relapse not as a failure but as a learning experience.

Hang in there.
