Getting Ready to Quit (Almost)
I have been dosing myself down on beer for the last week now. A week ago, I started off drinking a 12 pack every day. In the last week, I have tapered down from 12-6-5-5-4-4-3. I am getting to the point where I see the benefits of being sober (finally being able to sleep well for instance) greatly outweighing getting drunk every day.
I'm going to try to stop entirely in the next 3 days. I'm just curious what the first week is like. If anyone has any experience with this, what are the main obstacles to complete abstinance initially? I have my comfort cushion of at least having a couple beers a day now...but what will I need to prepare for to completely give it up? (The thought of giving up drinking entirely seems nearly impossible to be honest). Any advice is appreciated!
