How do you stop drinking? Hmm...
You refrain from taking the next drink. Simple.
And literally millions have done exactly that. Your AH isn't unique, nor is mine. But mine sure did tell me over and over again that he was. He simply could not get through the day without the alcohol, it was just too physically painful. Poor baby.
We have many many examples of "just not taking the next drink" ers right here on SR. It's the only way, and it's completely and easily done.
Just don't take that next drink!
