Has anyone gone from being a heavy drinker to just stopping completely?

[SquishyBones]

I’m a binge drinker 5 nights a week. I’ve tried cutting down but it doesn’t work because once I start, I don’t stop.

I feel the only way is to just go teetotal. It’s hard as big bastard DH encourages me to drink. But I have to be strong and in control of myself.

I’m not dependant but I suppose I am addicted to the habit. If it wasn’t there, I wouldn’t go out and get it iyswim

I don’t want to stop completely. Up at 4am this morning due to drinking again last night. It was 4:45 yesterday.

I haven't been a big drinker, but I've had my moments of drunkeness. I've never turned to drink to cope with stress. I gave up alcohol 4 years ago after a very traumatic time in my life and don't miss it one bit. Hope it goes well for you.
