Hey stubbs...congrats on deciding to see a doc and quit. I know it's not an easy one! I can't speak to the meds, but I wanted to welcome you. I couldn't imagine going without it either, but over time, it gets easier. Breaking bad habits and making new ones. And you might find that being social without it, gets easier, too. I go to bars to listen to a friend's band occasionally and I've gotten so good at not drinking, it doesn't bother me anymore, and people really don't care what you're drinking. You'll find that, too! I just wanted to put out there that it's possible and it doesn't have to be miserable. You'll be fine and you'll be SO proud of yourself and happy you did it, and your wife will too! Best wishes to you!
