You've made a great decision WD - and there's a lot of people here who'll be happy to share their experience with you about the various ways they got sober

Dire predictions do wonders for me. I am really frightened of the consequences if I continue. I have accepted the consequences are real and they apply to me. I will decline rapidly and die an early miserable death if I continue. There is no more I 'll stop tomorrow, because that is a lie. There is no reason to stop tomorrow, that indicates a lack of commitment or willingness to stop, at least to me. There is only one way to stop and that is now. Therefore I have stopped.
