Thanks for that thought-out input :-)
I'm having my fair share of substance experience as well and I don't plan to go for a completely sober life.
But, have practically the same idea you proposed.
I wanna get rid of useless stress drinking and smoking, and get back to a hedonistic approach, that doesn't senselessly kills me.
For example with tobacco, I want to have a set of plants myself, so I can experiment with mixing different kinds and fermentation methods. And that would be the tobacco I can use for the year.
That would be fun, self limiting and I guess, I would appreciate the smoke much more.
For alcohol, I'm currently doing it step by step, like with opiates.
For now I got rid of the hard stuff and we started shopping for alcohol free beer - there are at least 2 ok to good ones around here.
So, I'd drink a "real" beer at night, but then don't drink on and empty the bag, but switch to the alcohol free ones.
That works usually quite well, but as with everything, there are some days with a fallback.
But that's ok, I want to be drunk from time to time.
And yes, making myself something like a treat calendar is pretty much the next step :-)
Thanks, seems we're not too different ;-)
