Okay, this time is for real.

Hey all,

This looks like an active thread with friendly people, so I thought I’d start posting myself as I begin a 30-day experiment with sobriety. I have a feeling I'll be much better off if I never drink again, but for now 30 days is my goal. I had originally planned to start on November 1st, but then recalled I had previous plans to start on 8/1 and 9/1 and 10/1 (you get the idea). Pathetic. So 10/19 is just as good a day as any other.

I know I have a problem, and I know I’m very fortunate to not have ruined any relationships, lost my job, or gotten into any legal troubles YET.

400mL of vodka a day is slowing killing me and preventing me from reaching my full potential. At least I hope I have some untapped potential that will spring forth from me when free of the daily V.

I can’t subscribe to the AA model of recovery (no offense to people who have used it with success), so I’m going to give it a go by myself for now.

Thanks for reading.
