Have you considered trying out an AA meeting?

Welcome to SR.....

You don't have to be a daily drinker to be an alcoholic.
As you consider yourself to be ...I too think finding a
local AA meeting would be very beneficial.

Also...asking your doctor on how the best way to de tox
from alcohol is a wise idea. Alcohol withdrawal is a
medical issue and can be dangerous.

Glad you are here with us.....

AA works for me.

I didn't drink every night either, but I knew alcohol was killing me, and I would be much better off without it. I haven't regretted not drinking.

Big step coming here.. thank you for posting, and welcome! You'll find a lot of people like you around here, and a lot of people who have stopped drinking and begun to live again.

Stick around, read, post.. it's like a little family of support!!

I didn't drink every night either. Couldn't afford to. I was always using situations that were out of my control as evidence I was not an alcoholic. EX: Went through basic training, no pink elephants and didn't drink. Can't be an alcoholic. Out in the desert and living in a tent for several months with almost no alcohol - didn't get drunk and again, no pink elephants. Can't be an alcoholic. Etc......
