Something weird happened
2011/2012 marked two years where I have finally gone into the heavy drinking category. Binge drinking. Morning drinking. Drinking hard liquor every day. Wasting a bottle every other day or two nonsense.
I've wasted close to $300 on alcohol alone this year.
I've been drinking so hard this year that is is unfathomable that I wasn't thinking about drinking but something weird happened; I completely forgot about alcohol for three days.
I was so immersed in some holiday project that I forgot all about drinking. How can that be? I had a full bottle of Whiskey sitting right there in plain sight but I didn't even bottle to reach for it.
For three days, I woke up bright and I woke up feeling wonderful. How did I not go into any withdrawals?
After that three day of non-drinking, I never got back to drinking heavily. I usually waste a whole 750 ML within two days and I've been wasting it and drinking it for the good part of the year.
Every single day.
I find that when I do things with families, I tend not to think about drinking. When my mind is occupied and I'm doing something, I tend not to care about drinking.
The only time I do care about drinking is when I'm alone in the room or if I'm playing online games.
Online games was the main reason why I am a heavy drinker.

The amount of money I spent on booze is very small compared to the cost of the consequences from drinking & benders. Crashed cars, dui's, public drinking "tickets", close to $100,000
in unpaid hospital bills, lost cell phones ect... But the biggest loss was the self-respect I had for myself & others.

Hi Joybot,
So I go back to the question Paul99 asked---"are you looking to quit?"
If so might wanna check out the on line "Gaming Addiction". That has become the newest addiction ---I have a lot of friends whose children had brilliant futures at wonderful colleges and wasted it by "on line games".
They can be VERY addictive.
