Thanks for that. I hope you don't mind me saying I see a problem tho...

keeping busy occupied and productive is important - but a good plan needs to also cover the nuts and bolts of not drinking.

what to do if you crave, what supports you have and how to use them, what to do when you're ambushed by the opportunity to drink, what lifestyle changes you need to make....

You also have to cover those times when you're not busy or productive - because noone can be 24/7.

There are some more good ideas here
