That must have been a year or over now but I have creeped up in usage again.. Now I am slowly cutting back and adding sober days by myself and looking forward to being sober again. I think it’s time to accept no amount of alcohol will do me any good.
I'm in a similar situation. After ~8 years sober, I began using again a few months ago. It's getting out of control again, and it has caused me to miss work today. I'm not using right now, but I feel sick from last night's use. I need to stop, but I fear I can't stop without seeking professional help.

Last time, I got sober by entering treatment. My mother paid for this as I did not have the means to afford it myself. I'm ashamed because I've let her down for no good reason. I feel like I have to hide it from her this time because of this.
