Not just online, my friend. I got sober around the beginning of last baseball season. Thought I could turn the volume down on cravings that day by turning on a game.
"Welcome back to the broadcast, sponsored by Truly Hard Seltzer. Now let's take a look at the Miller Lite home run replay brought to you by Jack Daniel's Fire, cinnamon infused whiskey."
Interventions are tough. When I was intervention-ed, it felt like no one was on my team, like this is what they're supposed to do. I even went to rehab, but my heart was not in it. At all. Zero percent.
The second time I went, it was for me, not just to appease the endlessly talking heads all around me. Interventions walk that odd line between we're here for you in support, also, you're going somewhere because we care. Like the intervention is a favor.
At least for me. Others obviously experience it differently. I'd be willing to bet there's a lot of failed recoveries because of interventions and AA though. It might be because gasp people might have mental, emotional, and even genetic reasons. We aren't just a clump of people called alcoholics that need help to stop drinking.
That's like claiming "hey, I stopped beating my wife!" You don't get credit for that. You're not supposed to do that. Maybe there's a mental health issue? Maybe it's the environment? Interventions are not typically about anything but "hey you, stop".
Sadly that's not enough. Anybody thinking about it, the rehab is actually fun, then come the doctors and therapy to help straighten you out for realsies. 15 months for me. To anyone just starting the process, I will not drink with you today!
