6 pack of beer almost every night for the past 3 months. Doctor refuses to help me unless I go to rehab, but it's not feasible to spend that much time away from home.
Husband was drinking 3-4 a night and I was freaking out about it, he got it down to 1-2 by not buying it in packs except on weekend. Like he will stop at the corner store and get one beer for after work.
If you buy only one on your way home, instead of a six pack, do you think you would go out and get more, or might it work for you as it did for him?
I managed to quit for a week by buying one at a time plus a six pack of non alcoholic beer. Trying it out again today.
Good luck to you! A beer, a healthy supper, a walk in the night before bed. You can build healthy habits not just unhealthy ones. Do things to replace that beer. Yin yoga is really relaxing too, good bedtime practice.
Usually I'd be three in by now. Instead I mopped my floors and walked the dog. Eating a big salad now. Trying my hardest rn.
Awesome, that is great progress no matter what. Practice is what matters. Take care of yourself. Not kidding about the yin yoga - slow and cold, with pillows, it sort of tricks your nervous system into feeling safe.
3-4 a night?! That's nothing at all.
