fini.. Huge insight for me as well. I truly appreciate this thread and everyone on it.
Newathis... I was just like you. I thought I needed to really get AVRT down in order to quit. Now I realize I will have to quit in order to really get AVRT down... I hope that makes sense....
My realization in all this came to me when I was reading RR last night and it talks about my plans for continuing to drink... how not planning to quit is planning to continue. I had never looked at it this way. I was like Virginia in the beginning of the book saying "well how can I just quit"... the story of that phone call really hit home with me.
Thanks again to everyone, jkb
