I've been trying to quit drinking but it's been a struggle. I went two weeks and I drank last night. I really don't want to anymore. Does anyone have any tips, when they're feeling like fk it and drink?

Okay- I do not know you and have no idea what is going on with your life. I gave it up over 20 years ago when I became unemployed. I was faced with the prospect of starting a new career when I was almost 40. I was going to school at night and it was not going good. Then out of nowhere my father died very suddenly. I tied my drinking to the turmoil that was my life. I wanted something good to come out of all the badness. I got through school, got a good job and I never looked back.

Make subliminal audio that goes straight to the subconscious part of the mind that tells you not to drink. It will work after anywhere from a few weeks to a few moths. Some see results very quickly but it varies. The reason why many fail when trying to break habits is because they are trying to do it consciously and the conscious mind questions everything you give it, and it does not like change. But the subconscious mind does not ask questions, it just does as its told!

Yeah, like another person posted, "Pour it all out" and also stay away from the people you drink with for starters. For a lot of people they need to hit rock bottom first before they get scared enough to the point where they hate alcohol and what it does to them.

Hopefully you won't have to have something terrible happen in order for you to stay away from it.

Check out Cherie Garcia's 12 week plan she's been through it herself and has been sober for three years. She is the CEO of cornbread hustle, you'll find her on facebook. I know of several persons that followed her plan successfully. Good luck.

You have to go all-in. Just quit. put the money you would spend on alcohol in a jar every Monday. As you see the money grow it will help motivate you.

Get help. You can't do it alone

I've been secretive about. Because I'm ashamed. Your right that's not helping me

You need to make everyone aware. They can't help and support you if they don't know

Pour it all out
