It’s possible that you’re not actually at your true switch dose. But I’m also not sure that going up further in dose is really the answer, since you had been doing so well at the dose you’re already on, and had mostly positive experiences with drinking the few times that you have so far.
I would just advise you to be careful and not overdo it - as in not drinking too often. A lot of people have found that drinking too often can temporarily undo the benefits of indifference. It’s not that they were back to square one by any means, more that they started drinking out of habit and found their cravings returning. The good news is that indifference can be fairly quickly restored after another period of abstinence.
Try not to worry too much about what’s gone on this weekend. Use it as a learning experience and try to figure out what possibly went wrong, and what you can do differently in the future. Maybe it’s just a matter of not keeping alcohol at home, and leaving your drinking as a social thing for when you get together with friends.
