Im 30, and have been struggling with alcohol i would say my whole life, but more recently on an Everyday Basis for just over a year. Started out with Weekend drinking, Then spilled over to weekday drinking, at first a few drinks at night to help me sleep, and before i knew it was was starting my day with boose rather then coffee...

I drink about 750 ml of Rye in 2 days, sometimes a bit less sometimes a bit more. On the weekends i usually drink about 15 to 20 beer.

I'm not sure why i let myself go this far, i guess i liked the feeling of being buzzed, drunk. Now i don't even remember that plesant feeling anymore, all i remember now, if anything of my days is stomach turning fall down, throwing up, toooo drunk.


I am attempting to ween myself, and i know most people will tell me it never works! But today is day three, rather then my usually 7 to 12 Drinks a day, three days ago i went to 2 in the am and a smaller 1 in the late afternoon.

I have been good, not cheating not drinking more then my 3 a day...so far so good, im finding the 3 drinks are cutting it and though i do miss the buzz the 3 drinks are enough that i have virtually no craving for more.


The reason i am weening myself if im HORRIFIED of life threatning DT'S...and im hoping by cutting down gradually, that i dont experience them.
