Good luck! I empathize with the aggravation you are going through.
Thanks all for the advice. I've stopped cold turkey a few times in the past.
My drinking is definitely linked to family stress. A year ago I went on a 1 month detox nutrition program ... low carb, no caffeine, no alcohol, no dairy, no gluten, etc ....
I felt great after 30 days. I lost 17lbs of weight and have kept it off.
The stress of my parents has escalated over the last year (Mom calling me 14x a day at work, etc) and had triggered my excess drinking.
I am trying cold turkey. Two days so far and doing fine. AA is my fallback plan and I will try a session or two to check it out. The books look interesting as well.
Luckily, I do not have alcoholism in the family history. I will check in with updates.
Thx
