I Am Considering Of Stopping Alcohol.. Help Needed by Monogamy: 12:20pm On Nov 20, 2016
I do not need to lie to myself anymore. Alcohol is not really good for me whenever I over drink.. I don't fight, or causes nuisance, but I always regret most of my actions after getting high.. At least with Buda, I never have any record of f*cking up before..

Note: I work from home. My outings are only to do shopping or enjoy myself.. I don't have any friend around and I do not have intention of having one.. I am being honest with myself about alcohol for the first time..

Please I need an advice

Thanks

Why did you choose the religion section and not the health section for this? (serious question)

Quitting alcohol is not an easy task.You need to discipline your mind to engage in doing meaningful stuff such as writing (not a story or fiction but your day to day activity),learn a new language,reading a book,etc

What type of advice are you seeking? The one people telling you drinking alcohol is a sin?

Dude, do as you please. If you feel the need to stop taking alcohol, stop. Stop seeking advice from peeps who don't care about you.

If you want to stop then stop. No matter what peeps may tell you the ultimate decision and action lie in your hands.

It all boils down to self discipline. Why would you keep doing something that causes regrets for you after.

All you need is to convince yourself that you don't need it. All you are saying that you have never messed up before is because you are not yet convinced. You need to see it as bad for you.

You need a very good reason at that.

Try this, convince yourself that you have a better life without it. Constantly evaluate yourself for every day you do without it, keep track of your life without alcohol and compare it with the days you regret taking it. It will motivate you to keep going on.

Trust me, it's only you that can stop yourself, no book or advice or prayer can stop alcoholism. By the time your mind is fully made up, you'll even find yourself among people taking it and you won't even think of it.

What types and concentration of alcohol do you drink? How often? What time of the day? Do you drink to stupor? What motivates you to take up a bottle?

Whisky cos of cold weather.
On average of 2 times weekly..
Mostly at night
Stupor is only once in a blue moon
Boredom motivates the drinking. I work from home. I propably give myself an excuse of having a time out and end up drinking

Where do you live? What do you think about exercise as an alternative way to heat up?

In this case, there's hope. Yay. What happens when you don't have any whisky at home and you feel the urge? Have you tried that before?

Cold weather? Where do you live?
Twice a week means you have a good chance of overcoming your drinking habits before you delve deep into it.
What hobbies do you have?
