Same thing I did around early August -announced to the world my drying-out
starting tomorrow, then celebrated my upcoming sobriety with another bottle
of wine. Needless to say, the plan lasted until the next morning.

Finally, a few attempts later, I was able to go through it. What helped
make that possible was I tapered off for a few days before stopping, and
tried to eat, and took liquid vitamins. The other approach, having one last
binge, only made the cravings worse the next day. Good luck!
