I plan on using AA in addition to other methods. The most success I've had in the past has been 2 years on multiple occasions, the common denominator in those cases being that I was in a controlled living environment, and I don't mean "locked-up", it was by choice.

Since I certainly don't want to live out the remainder of my life in a "controlled environment", I've been trying to cope with life on it's own terms as an independent, responsible adult, which I'm still taking "baby steps" with.

As far as acceptance, 100% determination one moment may not extend to that level at other times, especially when circumstances change. I struggle with that.

I can definitely attribute this site for helping with the "progress" made to this point, don't know where I'd be without it!

Thanks again Scott!
