I'm only on day 3 but not telling anyone. I've done that before and just feel pressure and then failure which I don't need. I'm only accountable to myself and only I can decide not to drink. Of course I need support, but from people who understand - on SR, reading my AVRT book, AA if that's your choice etc. Family and friends don't get it and I'm not wasting my energy on explaining myself to them trying to get them to understand something that 'normal' people just don't understand.
