If I try to control my drinking it's not much fun but my uncontrolled drinking is not much fun either. It's a but like Pringles - once I have popped the cork I just can't stop. So for me it's about staying stopped and being happy - which is why I need some other behaviours and practices to help me stay content so I don't find myself obsessing about wether/when I can or should have a drink/drug.
