as far as statistics go - as an all day every day drinker for 5 years, and a serious binge drinker before that, I doubt my chance of success was statistically very high.
But I really wanted not to die an alcoholic death.
Since 2007 I've worked hard, and continue to be vigilant.
I changed everything I had to, and I found support.
I've not relapsed since finding SR.
My effort rate is 100% and my success rate is 100%
yours can be too GHD - anyone can do this
