I'm currently not working and this is only my second time quitting. It seems like it was alot easier when I was working. For one, I'm home all day by myself or with my 9 year old actually. When working I had all day to not think about drinking. only like 6 hours at home till I crashed. Now its all day and evening and lots of time to think. Its actually why I was drinking a fifth a day instead of a pint. Work is good.
