Greenwood, I drafted a lengthy reply to you, with your recent numerous posts quoted and my responses contained therein. But I'm not posting it, because the only reason I'm still here on SR is the hope that I might guide others towards a technique to stop drinking, for good. To engage in debates over my purported understanding of AVRT would serve no purpose, to that end. I will say though, that I was writing earlier, with the benefit of hindsight, I did think folks would understand that perspective.
As GerandTwine says, nobody but the self knows that a Big Plan is set in stone, that the person will never drink again and never change their mind. I know that my BP is inscribed in my core, in my heart, in my true and authentic self. My Beast may occasionally rattle its dummies or try to throw its toys out of its pram: to no avail as IT no longer has power over me.
