Tyler, Abstinence is my ultimate goal long term and at this point am on day 26, a record for me not having a drink of some kind in a long time. I was more or less a binge drinker when I finally said "this is out of hand" in the past year or so. The binges were getting closer together. Anyway, I figure the more I learn about the tools out there: mental, medical, psychological, whatever, the better decisions I can make about my recovery. There is so much recovery experience to draw from the people on this site and others I visit. Thanks for your input.
