ive never known an alcoholic to have any success with limiting their drinking.
i have known plenty that tried........without success......some never got back.
ive known a couple of guys that had drinking problems......hard drinkers i guess......once there life situation improved..ie the wife came back..or they got another job..they managed to reduce their drinking and to my knowlege still manage to have some element of control...
maybe its time you look at your drinking with gut level honesty..alcoholics will do almost anything to keep drinking and that includes telling ourselves( and believeing it) that there maybe a chance we can control it.
Are you an alcoholic?......what makes you think your an alcoholic..?
and if you are....then maybe read the replys above.....theres a few alkies there..
people that can control there drinking dont normal end up at a www sober site in my experience.
