[QUOTE=AmericanGirl;2731983] I tried moderation of all kinds-- this many drinks per night, this many drinks per week, only on the weekends, etc./QUOTE]
AmericanGirl just said something that stuck out to me.
You see what trying moderations is? It's called planning. Yep, planning your next drink.
I can't do that - if I plan in moderation, I'll start planning on a bigger scale.
