That’s fucked up my guyy
Half a day should be easy to quit from. Taper down to one drink a day over a week. Do a couple days there and then stop.
Reason ? Drinking to get by the work pressure ? Using it as a form of escapism ?
Try AA, search for nearby meetings. Try to get a sponsor as soon as you can. Can't stop drinking cold turkey. The hardest part is changing your social habits. You have to let go of the people in your life who let you get here, who encourage you in your habit. It's a long process of making small decisions every day to improve your life. Forgive yourself when you fall off the wagon, and get right back on. Slips don't mean you can't succeed. Good luck!
Can you imagine meeting someone you know at AA? It would be a instant kill to career progression
Anybody you met at AS should and would keep it to themselves.
What’s causing it? Or do you have withdrawal symptoms when you don’t drink?
I can’t pinpoint anything causing it. It feels internal and that being drunk I just feel much better overall
Have you seen the movie Harvey? Strongly recommend. Main character drinks every day too 🤗
I’ll check it out
You’ve got a hole in your life, drug and alcohol overuse is how a lot of successful people paper over a lack of meaning in life. Speaking from experience
I've been sober in AA for 15 years. Its not the only solution-- depends on your situation. But it worked for me. Either way, it's possible to get help if you want it.
Did you go to AA while in the Bay Area?
This is normal drinking amount in Eastern Europe. But seriously, stop drinking for a week, if you can't do the week because you're having withdrawals symptoms go see a doctor.
Fuck seeing a doctor. They all seem to want me in and out the room ASAP to get their fucking $80. I’ve tried stopping countless times
by not drinking
