It doesn't stop it though. It just makes you feel nothing for a few hours. You want some REALLY bad news? Keep doing that and after a time the drinking won't even make that feeling go away for a few hours.
You really want that feeling to stop? Quit giving it what it wants. You can't negotiate with it, educate it, or placate it.
It must be starved.
Don't drink for 90 days and then let us know if you're still having that feeling.
You can do this.
