boykin,
i think what may be happening is that many of us don't have any experience with successfully moderating our drinking, and found sobriety to be the answer. so, speaking for myself at least, i wouldn't be the right person to give advice for your situation. if you want to stop, i feel i can add more to the conversation.
this is a very supportive community, and i wish you the very best.
i hope you will continue to post
