Take up a new hobby, ANY hobby. I found myself trying all sorts of new things...anything to keep my mind off of alcohol. I tried taking back up a musical instrument, starting meditation, signing up at a gym...and now, posting here. So far, the combination of these activities have strongly reduced my desire to drink.
