Welcome Flakey,
Im on day 3 again, this time with better tools and support to start a new life with out drinking. I started out trying to cut back and stressed out on how I would only drink 1 or 2 from time to time. I knew that that program did not work in the past for me and after reading a lot of posts here It seems it is not the way to go. Yesterday when I joined I made the decision not to drink at all, I feel better about the commitment rather then trying to figure out when I would drink and then how much and deep down knowing that would start the cycle that brought me here again. I liked the pickle story, I'm one and I'm out of the Jar , Thank God, Got to go and start my new day and whats pretty cool is I will remember it all as long as I don't drink .
