i thought i read you were tired of this cycle?

not only that,
" I've been trying on and off for 5 years to quit drinking. "

maybe trying isnt the best option?

sobriety is something that is done- there are actions involved and there are quite a few different recovery programs available. they all require action.
there is going to be discomfort. there are going to be days that arent good.
thats why its called recovery- theres injury that needs to heal and healing will involve discomfort and bad days.
ive had 6 surgeries and a couple rounds of chemo. they all had discomort and bad days as i was healing.
eventually, the discomfort and bad days stopped because i was healed- i had recovered.
