OK. I previously tapered, stopped, then started again. The usual Huge equiv. of 1 litre spirits a day, as I was previously. Madness, I know.
As an international forum I’ll keep it to the equiv of bottles of red wine. I tapered to 3 bottles, then 2.5 bottles, then 2 bottles, then yesterday 1.5 bottles. So that’s where I am now, trying to keep to 1 bottle, then half a bottle tomorrow, then the next day none, or if necessary sip 1 unit only, throughout the day. It is hard. But I can do it, because it’s do or die, there is no try, as Yoda said.
I do realise I must be exasperating.
