My best was like 80 days
Nice! So now you'll make 81 days?
That is the idea
Awesome! You got this, friend. What has you drinking?
Personally i am not drinking months at a time. I've reached a point where i can drink a single beer and then go back to not drinking for a while again, although I've had some crashes over the years. But the interval i can measure in years now. Those crashes were all significant turmoil in my life i couldn't handle... It always took a lot of strength to pull myself out though.
More like what hasn't got me drinking
So why stop?
10 years of it has Real Health Consequences :)
I know, right? For me it was the realization that what I got out of drinking was not worth the consequences. Ymmv, of course. I am rooting for you to find the right reason to stop drinking. It really isn't worth it.
