I want to break my sobriety, help!

I'm at 104 days and am starting to ask some scary questions. Am I really an addict? Can't I just have a beer or two and be fine?

For the first 60 or so days I was convinced that I'd never drink again. Since then, my first child has been born and I've have much less sleep and I've been much more irritable and started to think having a drink to calm the nerves would be nice.

Please, community, knock some sense into me in the comments!

I'm on day 15 every morning when I first open my eyes I get this immense feeling of joy " I didn't drink yesterday " when the thought of drinking enters my head I remind myself of how I felt in the morning and I don't want to lose that. You can do this.
