Day 1 completed. Just about to go to bed so it would appear that I've made it. Yay! Plan is very simple (needs to be as I have a very bad memory!): 90-day-no-surrender to start with (I read somewhere on this site that you need 90 days to break the physical, emotional and mental habits - this is how I started when I gave up last time in November and it is a great focus, particularly as I really know that 90 days is only the first 90 days of forever); ten-minute-rule, which means I give it ten minutes before acting on any urge to drink - I always seem to find after 10 minutes somehow I don't really want that drink so much - and finally the mantra I got from a fellow November '14 classmate: 'no-one ever regretted not drinking'. Good to meet the new class.
