Good day BBs!!
Sheepish - you're asking perfectly legitimate questions. It's hard to implement a plan if you're not quite sure what it is. And it can take a good long while to figure out what you want to do. I moderated for 2 months while lurking on MWO before I joined and made the decision to abstain. A friend who's done 6 months AF says he spent at least 6 months before that mulling over how to address his drinking. For him, making the AF decision was harder than the abstaining itself. I'd start with why your drinking is a problem for you. If you can moderate most of the time, what/when/why happens on those occasions when you cannot? Perhaps what you need is a bit of 'diagnostic' time of looking at your drinking patterns. As the others say, there's lots of support on the site whichever direction you decide to go.
I have things to say to other people too. For starters, Mame - are you OK?
But, DG, I'm confused!!! It's a Monday so do I just carry on blabbering over here or are we moving over to a new thread??!!
