Unhappy Time to quit?

I've been trying to give up since around last October and don't seem to be having much luck and found this site..

Generally, I drink three to four times a week and am one of those "don't stop to you drop" types. I've had two liver functions tests done both showing raised GGT, the first was 160 and the second, 224 and the Dr said to "cut right back on the alcohol". It's got to the point where I have missed days of work and combined with the dodgy test results I really want to either quit completely or at least have some form of control when I do go out (though I guess this is extremely unlikely).

My last attempt , approximately two weeks ago, lasted a week but since then I've fallen back into the usual pattern if not worse. Whenever I relapse I tend to drink more on that day as if making up for lost time.

Any tips or advice would be much appreciated.
