Aiko you may have read my story that I posted earlier today. But I think you should stick to your date so that you can finish properly and then start again. My date was 7th October and I've never drunk another drop. I didn't start earlier because I thought it would give me an excuse to fill in the days missed later!!! I took the NEVER approach and a simple "no" to any head debates. This worked for me and a day at a time wouldn't have because of the "day off" possibilities that implies. Only you know what works best for you. But I agree with whoever it was that said perhaps just think 1 week, 3 months, then 6 months and then a year. My first year seemed to work that way anyway. I wish you the very best of luck. Keep strong.
