Greetings All
 

Hi everyone,

Just signed to the forums. I'm not an alcoholic, but I do drink regularly and want to give it up. I have genetic pre-dispotion to cancer, so want to do by best to avoid the big C by cutting alcohol out of my life.

Any advice or information on how to give it up would be appreciated.

Thanks.

Hi and welcome jmunns :)

if you want to quit drinking, this is a good place to be :)

I found the support and encouragement here really helped me turn my life around, and helped me find the strength to make the changes I needed to make.

Read around and post as much as you like - look at what other people are doing for recovery, and hopefully you'll find an approach that suits you :)

I'm glad you found us :)

Welcome to SR, jmunns.

If you are not an alcoholic or don't have a problem with drinking, giving up alcohol should be fairly easy. Maybe change your routine; add new activities - exercise, volunteer; avoid situations where you usually consume alcohol - happy hour after work, etc. Make your home an alcohol-free zone.

Glad you found SR. Good to see you taking proactive steps ton reduce your cancer risk.

Welcome Jmunns nice to meet you
