I switched to non-alcoholic beer, and then took a shot of whisky/vodka when I really needed some alcohol. No tasting, just shoot it. I measured it out carefully, 3oz per day max became 2oz, became 1oz, became 1oz 5 days a week, 3 days a week, etc. It fell away naturally after a while.
Still drink a few non-alcoholic beer every night, I used to drink 6-10 because I used to drink 6-10 real beer a night. I have had maybe 3oz of whisky in the past month.
Now when I have a drink it is a whole ritual. Very expensive scotches, glasses, etc. lol. I got the liquor on a nice shiny leash.
Maybe it's fucked up, but it worked for me. Been a few years now.
