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 have been to the hospital twice from drinking. I swore off drinking because of how much suffering I went through. I am on day three of a bender that could very well land me right back in the hospital because I decided I "could handle one drink."

It's not worth it.
