Not sure what to say but it feels like a switch clicked in my head today and my eyes were opened.
Yesterday I bought 2 sixpacks to last me over the holidays and today I saw that they're empty. And the expensive whisky for special occasions too.
I didn't even have a reason to drink that much. I've officially lost control.

So no more "only on weekends". Or "not at home" Or "not alone". Or "not more than 2 beers". Tried all that, didn't work.

I am not going to drink today. I don't need to drink today. What a liberating feeling!

Hell yeah!!! Start with one day and just keep stacking them. I just passed the one year mark last month and it was a great feeling.
