I think he might be wiling to quit - he has before when I was on the wagon (5 years ago). It may help to look at how much he spends each month at the bar...It adds up and we have debt to pay off.

Keeping busy seems to help. It has helped me in the past deal with triggers and cravings. Chores, cooking, working out (when my body feels a little better), reading, journaling...all are things I can do and ENJOY instead of drinking.

LSC1 - I have a lot of different teas. About to have a cup of chamomile. Comforting and doesn't cause hangovers! Actually, now that I think of it, drinking a cup of chamomile tea has helped me get through cravings several times in the past.
