BTW if you have no control to not act how are you going to not act?
Oh ye of little faith! Please go back and read my posts and you will learn that I did controlled drinking (tapering) for four days before I completely quit. I certainly don't want to go through that misery again. I am a very strong person but only by the grace of God was I able to taper and completely quit and stay quit so far--no urges, no relapses. So prayer is another one of my tools. It really works!
Phil 4:13 I can do all things through Christ who gives me strength.
