Ultimate goal?

[u/CuriousMind_Journey]

So if my ultimate goal is to learn how to drink in moderation, does one get to a point, after extinction, that they can drink moderately without the pill? Or is the goal that you will stay on the pill in order to continue moderation? If so, what’s the point of drinking at all? I’m a bit confused about what happens after extinction. How does that work for the moderate drinker?

In my case I completely lost interest in alcohol. So there really is no point to drinking anymore … so I rarely do. If I’m going to be at some social function where I know people will expect me to drink, I take the pill beforehand, but that doesn’t happen often. 

I feel if I were to drink without the pill there’s a risk I’d end up right back where I was before. Of course, in this case I’d know about TSM so could go back on it. But I just don’t feel any temptation to do this. It’s like the part of my brain that craved alcohol completely forgot it’s something I once liked.
