I've been lucky to never have that problem but I drank alot when I was young. Then after I met my wife who doesn't drink, it just got where it wasn't any fun by myself so I just seemed to quit. I know you feel like this doesn't say much, but if you stay around others who want to help and don't drink around you maybe it will make it easier. Got a friend who drank 10 -12 beers each nite, told me he wanted to slow down, we seldom ever drink at all together, now he says he can take it or leave it, says he feels better too. Anyway I wish you luck.
