Hi, there! Quick question... Do you have an actual addiction to alcohol? Or is it more like you:
1) Want to give it up due to negative things you've seen happen from substance use, and
2) Are having a hard time because you really enjoy a couple beers a few times a week?
If you have an addiction, don't despair about the difficult in pulling the plug 'cuz that's exactly the nature of addiction! Getting those first few abstinent weeks in is a major challenge for almost everyone.
But if you're not addicted, and you're trying to change a simple behavioral/dietary habit by treating it like an addiction (admitting powerlessness), maybe that's why your efforts aren't working? Do you maybe just need to lean into the "behavioral habit" with a little more willpower?
What would happen if you committed to going on a reduced-carb diet for a month -- eliminating refined sugars and carbs, alcohol, etc? It wouldn't be a lot of fun, but you'd be beer-free for a little while to "try it on for size." Would you be jonesing for another form of alcohol?
This probably wasn't that helpful, but these were just the questions that came to my mind when I read your post.
