I use some components of RR, but not all. I like the idea of making a definitive decision about not drinking anymore, ever - for me this works better than one day at a time. I also find it very valuable and essential to learn to monitor our thoughts and feelings to recognize patterns that might lead to relapse, more than just simply cravings, and I feel I've become pretty good at this. I do not think about these as separate from "myself", though, that sort of splitting does not work for me, so I just identify negative thoughts as some of my thoughts.

I also like to use a combination of different methods, purely awareness and logic were not enough for me in the past.
