Trying again

I am a 3 drink 3 days a week kinda girl.....and desperately want this out of my life. Keeping it to this limit is taking all of my willpower. I want to be free of this pressure to keep all under control. I stopped for 6 weeks last July and felt wonderful....then caved to social pressure and started again. This looks like moderate drinking but it really is not because it takes all of my attention .... planning planning planning how to ensure I don't go over my set limit. So! I know what to do....stop stop stop.

Perhaps you could take up a (non drinking) activty that would occupy you on the days you are most likely to drink. It sounds to me like the social withdrawals would be as difficult as any physical ones.
