I think as long as drinking is a option, in some form, regardless of the restrictions you put on that activity, you will be breaking your self-imposed rules.
Well. I've been drinking mostly alone the last two, maybe three years. Alone while in the house until I moved out. And alone out on town since December. Whenever I drink alone there's no limits, I go haywire and only go home when the bar closes or when I get kicked out. So sort of, but not really. But there's a reason for my rule about drinking alone. My rules are mostly about not getting completely smashed three times a week, and drink as seldom as possible, never without a "proper reason".
I know this sounds idiotic. But that's where I'd want to start.
