Drinking was a habit for me and I enjoyed the ritual of making a drink, then watching a favorite TV show or grabbing a book to read. After many years, that ritual turned into drinking several bottles of wine or just taking straight shots from a bottle of whatever booze was handy.
One thing that helped when I first stopped drinking was to always have a glass of juice or soft drink close by-that helped fulfill my habit and the sugar calmed down the cravings.
I also can’t have alcohol in the house....it’s too tempting to sneak “just one sip” that turns into an entire of bottle of liquor gone.
Just little tips that helped me break the cycle. I hope they can help you too, Stable.
Your thread title made me LOL! Thanks for that and hang in there.
