For me, it's necessary to abstain completely because then it isn't an issue to consume me: well, I can just have one tonight and handle it, and I probably can, but it's the temptation of tomorrow that sends me over the edge into oblivion, back even worse than when I was before. So, for me, abstention just means it's not on the table at all, and that I choose to make this choice because while I could handle a couple, I would ultimately end up back in my own private gutter.
I just find it easier to deal w/it this way.
best,
antigua
