You think you are an alcoholic, and you think you just drink out of boredom. Those two statements are at odds with one another. Sounds good, drinking out of boredom. Makes the solution sound easy. Drinking because of alcoholism. Not so easy. But it's human nature to take the easy path.
A trial sober period will show you if its boredom or alcoholism. Good luck.
