yeah i can certainly see the sneaky side of alcohol addiction , and can certainly see it rationalizing in my brain , and ur post has made me see that it is making me think that my moderation has been fine , but ive still been drinking in an alcoholic way (alone etc) even though it hasnt been often . i suppose its because ive always been someone who doesnt believe in giving up everything at once , and now ive even given up weed , which until very recently i thought was my god send , the drug i could keep doing with no real negative side effects , that was not the case

and i really dont want to replace it with alcohol and let that become regular , however ive been through it before and like to think i can keep it in moderation . i can positively say i DO NOT need to go to a rehab or anything at this current time , my life has improved 10000x since quitting weed 12 days ago , ive just started seeing a psych and am going to get some help with even my alcohol use through him .
