It’s ok you know you can give it up and in the future you can do it again. Personally I am 1 month + on my not drinking and heading to April strong ! Although St. Pats day was hard to get through with our a drink.

No worries here. I’m sure you know yourself better than I do.

If I were single and didn’t have 5 kids and a wife…I’d be drinking and chasing women myself. Have an extra one of each for me please.

In reply to Danger Brown.

That’s good to hear but trust me if I was in denial about anything I wouldn’t be sharing it publicly. Also I don’t “binge” drink like in college, just because you have a couple drinks it doesn’t mean you have to get drunk.

Maybe I should have clarified more in the post but what might sound like a “binge” weekend was far from it, when I go out and want to pick up girls, drinking too much is the last thing I would want to do.

Not to break your balls but skipping one weekend doesn’t prove much. If you could have had the one without sliding into binge drinking all weekend, that might have meant something.

In my experience when I hear someone say “I’m not an alcoholic….etc.” it usually means that they are in denial. Be careful. Lots of people who find success, especially at a young age, live too hard and burn out after a few years.

I’ve done some pretty impressive stretches of living fast and partying hard. I love to drink and am not morally superior. But it has been about 7 months since I had a drink. Take care.

You didn’t fail brutha… far from it.

Look, you’re a success, that takes huge discipline right there. So you slipped up a night. You’ve made it in other things… Big Time.

Not everybody is rollin in a LEXUS at 22 years old. Congrats man. You should be proud of yourself

good work… next time instead of trying a month, try 1 day, repeated 30 times. The “just for today” mindset makes it cake.

I’m confused; did you actually make the month first?
