I was "successful" at maintaining my plan, problem was, I found myself OBSESSING about alcohol all day every day. Finally I just decided to give myself a break from all things alcohol and just stopped drinking and obsessing about booze. I didn't put a time limit on it, nor did I put any pressure on myself to "succeed" at anything. It was just a break. I have now been on "break" for 31 days! If I can do it you can too. I drank just like you, and I had the same feelings you are experiencing now. I had so many doubts. Just give yourself a "break" and see how it goes.
