I was really rooting for you with that feb 1 thing.
I'm not trying to be that guy, but maybe your plan wasn't as good or detailed as you thought it was sortofhomecoming?
Don't make your addiction into this plan busting behemoth or inevitable crushing force of nature.
Its not.
Addiction can be beat - if you want it to be.
Every bit of effort you put into not drinking will be repaid.

Thanks Dee. Not to hijack Stable's thread but now that I think of it , while I felt my plan was sufficiently detailed, where I failed was implementation and discipline. There were certain things on my plan that I stopped doing for legitimate reasons (I couldn't really afford gym membership even with the amount I was saving by not drinking, and frankly I'm not really a gym person, just prefer outdoor exercise), but I should have amended the plan to capture a new activity, for example. It's on me. As the AA folk would put it I have a problem of self-will run rampant.
