Day one without drink but hopefully not without partner

I've finally accepted that I can't moderate my drinking and it's been making my marriage unhappy for a few years now so I've decided I need to quit.

I thought I'd post my decision here as a kind of public declaration of my intent which hopefully will help me make the inner resolution that I need. Writing this has also helped my clarify and simplify my thoughts.

I hope my marriage will survive this because we have a divorce on hold and my drinking yesterday may have blown this, but I guess I have to do this for myself and look on my marriage as a nice consequence if it survives and something that I need to accept if it doesn't.

Thanks for reading guys!
