I wish you the best.
The only thing I'd quibble with is your thought that alcoholism is a "weakness"--it isn't. Some of the strongest, most intelligent, determined people I know cannot drink normally. It takes strength to admit that, especially when so many people like yourself look at it that way.
I'd try to get rid of that idea, because even if it SEEMS like a motivator to moderate, it can be a great big obstacle to a happy life if the moderation experiment doesn't turn out the way you hope it does.
Good luck, and stay honest!
