Not sure what to say but it feels like a switch clicked in my head today and my eyes were opened.
Yesterday I bought 2 sixpacks to last me over the holidays and today I saw that they’re empty. And the expensive whisky for special occasions too.
I didn’t even have a reason to drink that much. I’ve officially lost control.

So no more “only on weekends”. Or “not at home” Or “not alone”. Or “not more than 2 beers”. Tried all that, didn’t work.

I am not going to drink today. I don’t need to drink today. What a liberating feeling!

    Proud of you. I found that being ready not to drink is an important first step for long term success. That sounds super obvious writing it out, but harder to do than say. Best of luck!
