I'm on a drinking break myself, good for you for quitting! How's it going so far?

Four days sober. I drank some last night and I have a headache. After fifteen years of doing it every day, five drinks instead of ten is not so bad. I'm not doing AA so I don't have to be shamed by picking up a new chip on Saturday. It's called harm reduction in my group instead of "we're very disappointed in you for not praying to God instead of drinking."

Sounds like you have a good support system and you're making great progess! 15 years, wow, it's gotta be rough trying to break a habit that long running.
