Congratulations on your 5 years, that's fantastic. I can totally get being triggered by boredom. I know when I'm bored I want to drink. But we both know that's not a solution. Is there anything that you do, like hobbies, of things you want to learn? There are a ton of on-line courses, many of them free or relatively low cost. There are also on-line sobriety support meetings. I know AA and SMART recovery are both running on-line meetings.
Don't give up, nothing is worth going back to drinking.
