Well those cons look like they outweigh the pros to me. Our DOC was different but the addiction and the garbage we tell ourselves is the same.

As long as you are telling yourself that the pros outweigh the cons, you won't quit. Start telling yourself the opposit.

And for me, I thought no one knew, I thought I hid it well, but usually everytime I thought that, I was wrong. I learned that after getting sober.

Give yourself a break, give yourself a shot at sobriety. Hit a meeting like was already suggested, what have you got to lose?
