You can do it. You just don't know it yet. Before I quit, I tried to slow down. I would occasionally quit for 3 days, but then get edgy and irritable and drink. Then I made it to 5 days, and those were the worst cravings of all. I made it through day 5, and then things started to get better and I never had another drink again. I know that it's easy to feel you don't have it in you. I felt like that once, but I got better. You can too.
