When I first saw it, I thought it was almost an anti-recovery message. You are not going to be any happier in six months than you are now, so why quit drinking. But that is not the case, for one thing there is a depressive effect of alcohol to take in to account. A more accurate statement would be that you are not going to be any happier in six months than you were before you started drinking. This is a super positive message for me. I know I have other things to change other than just not drinking. Besides, "before I started drinking" was 25 years ago. I am a completely different person now.
