I can't speak for you, but moderation for me would be remarkably similar to giving Dracula a blood transfusion. And given the choice, I'd rather let the son of a b!tch rot in hell.
As for how I do it? I do it like everyone else.....one day at a time. Why jump over a hurdle when you can walk over a stick? Sobriety isn't nearly as daunting when make the goal very, tiny.
Hope this helps
