On my fifth day not drinking and not confident I can stop for the whole summer or forever. In recovery currently and still debating what I'm going to do. I'm prescribed naltrexone but don't take it. Only took it for a couple days when orignally prescribed it a few months ago. So yeah not sure if this alcohol abstinence is going to last all summer or forever

You need a good reason to hate booze. Quietly, in your own mind, hate it. Blame it for every evil you can think of. Dredge up your rock bottom memories and use it to push you through.

You got this.
