Very good suggestions, maybe also look into an addiction group.

Mentality is vital in anything you do, trying to force the issue or put pressure on yourself might show you some improvement, but your missing a whole lot more by not looking at mentality.

Are you worried for health reasons? It sounds like obsession to me, I personally have tried to seize control of every aspect of my life and recovery at different times... my mind will just go around trying to control this and that, or this person or that person thinking that makes or will make...

Everybody has different ideas and different approaches, I've decided to take one day at a time, regardless of perceived success. Each sober day for me is a blessing.
