Optimistic

Been drinking beer for 15 yrs., 8-12 daily and more on the weekend. As of Tues. I've tapered down in hopes of quitting. Tues. drank 5 beers, Wed. drank 4 beers, Thurs. drank 2 beers, and today, Fri., I will only drink 1. I hope to drink none this weekend. Never felt better. I read stories about withdraws even when tapering off, but I feel great so far. Maybe it's because I drink 32 ounces of juice daily (beets, carrots, ginger, kale, cucumber, lemmon, etc.) Anyways, read a lot of positive stories and hope I can get there.

Welcome amp, I was a everyday beer drinker too. I didn't really go through physical withdrawal but the mental stuff was tough. It is so worth it though. Let us know how we can help my friend
