Nick,
Thanks for the note! Hope you are doing better now. I have a couple questions for you -
1. Did you experience day to day recovery after your symptoms returned? Because I used to experience day to day improvement before that last drink in July. Now things just seem stagnant, and that is what is really scary. They've been stagnant for the last two weeks.
2. When you were recovering from symptoms did you have a lot of setbacks? When I was initially getting better I would slowly get better but not slip back from a recovery standpoint barring additional stimulus (usually a long day of work or alcohol). About two weeks ago I felt clearer than I had felt in a long time but the moment I had a conversation with someone I felt myself slip out and exhaust into chaos again.

I began to drink again and go full speed 100% back into my old activities and my symptoms returned. The best advice I can give is to accept that this can take a long time to recover and that stressing or worrying about it just makes it much worse. Take care of yourself and let your body heal
