It was that I didn't care what my av, or whatever you want to call it, said. I didn't listen or care what it thought. I knew I was done and no one was going to tell me otherwise.

I know that may sound over simplified but for me to come to that decision was the greatest thing I ever did for myself. I finally became selfish for a good reason.

All that being said, my point is that you know you can't drink. You've made it two weeks without it so you CAN do it. Now do you want it or not?
this is what I was trying to convey in different words. Well said!
