Sounds like a good plan... I don't think I will tell anyone either..I have told relatives in the past before but have only felt more like a failure as well...I honestly was thinking of relocating soon...not sure when but a change of scenery from the place I consistently relapse would be nice..
However, AVRT book and SR sounds like a good support system for your first few days...
I am actually now on day 3 as well
