About 10 days into tapering down.
Had a few drinks (5 shots and 2 beers to be exact) on a Sat night - had a huge fancy 3 course dinner, couldn't bring myself to washing it down with water
Other than that was sticking to 1-3 beers or 1-2 shots per day last week. Haven't had any alcohol since Sunday this week so far.
Initial withdrawal symptoms I mentioned in the original post lasted 4-5 days, started taking melatonin before bed to help with the sleep cycle issue. Helped quite a bit.
