Where the difficulty usually lies
Discomfort from stopping drinking, social pressure to drink, emotional stress, and unresolved family conflicts can all push a person back to drinking.
"Successful abstinence" is not the day you make a vow
A more realistic marker is: stopping drinking with manageable risk, recovery of sleep and daily functioning, having methods to cope with cravings, and being able to follow through on agreements with family members.
Actionable first steps
Assess the risk first, then discuss methods; do not tough it out if the risk is high. When needed, contact a professional institution to arrange a pathway.
