I've had incidences of hurting myself when drunk (falling down stairs amongst other things), I can just see myself going in a similar way if I continue
You don't have to follow that path. Quitting is the best thing you can do for your health right now. Life is so much better when you aren't nursing the daily hangover or worrying about how you are going to get your drinks when you currently don't have any left. You can certainly quit and you will be so much better for it.
