pkrma, i too am one of those who have quit with only the help of this web site. i am only three months sober but stopped etoh, weed and cigs all at the same time. it hasn't been that hard.... yet. i keep waiting for something to happen. not sure what that "something" is. good? bad? i don't know. i just know that today i'm not going to drink. i feel great and have been living the same life as before, just without the booze, weed and cigs. stay in the moment and don't put effort into the future and what might happen. i wish you the best of luck pkrma. it doesn't matter how you get it done, as long as it works.
