Do you meditate? The trick is learning how to crush those voices before they start. Meditation is the best thing to help control your mind in order to build healthy habits. And it is very important when you do decide to have a drink not to beat yourself up about it. Having a friend or someone to talk you out of it can also help, like a life-line. Instead of grabbing a drink call a friend, go for a walk, read a book, just find healthy habits to replace it with. And from what I've read that I agree with, get a dessert or some treat to look forward to instead of having a drink, like a reward for you not drinking. Little psychological tricks that can help build strong resistance is all you need. Start with just 1 thing that you think you can do and master it then add another thing, baby steps. Good luck.
