Now, whenever I get the urge to drink, I bring up the image of myself looking into the mirror, and saying “no more”.

That is a powerful idea. It is a simple and effective mental marker that you have established in your mind. In my case, I have a memory of being on vacation on a street in San Juan, P.R. and being tempted to have one drink because I had been "good", and saying "Hell No" out loud to myself.
