Welcome to SR Spybee007. I'm 30 and have been drinking for 10+ years and am 6 weeks sober

I did this battle for years. And I was always quitting next week...for like 3 years, argh! Coming here was really the turning point for me I had to remove the option of drinking completely and not engage in that debate. Giving up drinking for me has been the easiest and the hardest thing I've ever done. AVRT helped me, as did things like 'thinking the drink through' and staying close to SR.

Glad you're here
