Richie, your story sounds a lot like mine.

I'm about the same age, quit cocaine about 15 years ago and had been drinking heavily for 21+ years. Was diagnosed with fatty liver back in 2007 so I switched from hard liquor to beer and wine. Amazing how I justified that one! Kept drinking for another 5 or so years.

Got where I was drinking a 3L box of wine each weekend day and over half of one on the week days... plus some beer. Began drinking earlier and earlier in the day until I was drinking in the mornings. Never thought I would be able to quit.

I'm on day 297 today. This is the best thing I ever did, giving up drinking. It does take an adjustment and a lot of commitment, but so worth the effort you will put in!

Glad you found SR. It's a great community with a ton of unconditional support 24/7.

Welcome
