I don't know, but if I was left on my own I would be able to quit. This is not realistic or what I want, but the social aspect is the big issue for me. People drink. I drink too much. If I could only manage to cut down and learn how to regulate myself I'd be O.K. I can't see this happening anytime soon, although I did manage it the other day.
I'm getting to the point where I just don't want to be drunk or hung over, maybe this will make me drink less while I'm out. I really don't know how to get past this issue at the moment. I can't just avoid everybody.
