Why is this so damn hard. I have no insurance to cover it and everyone i talk to wants to know my insurance.
I just want to talk to people that have a drinking issue.
Wtf. Why are such things so hard?
Trying to clean up my drinking.

Dang sounds like you and I have been on a very similar trajectory.
I did finally quit after years. First year I really had to consciously and constantly make that commitment to myself to quit drinking. I'm on year 2 now and am feeling so much better about... well everything. I'm now able to go to get togethers now without extreme cravings. I still get them from time to time and I probably always will but it's easier to say no. I realized for me my cravings were largely habit and out of associations (nighttime = drink, bored = drink, get togethers = drink), so I did my best to change associations (nighttime = gym, bored = new hobbies, get togethers = placed emphasis on catching up with people rather than partying aspect) and realize that I built up a habit over many years, so it'll take a long while to undo it. I've made it to the otherside and am just doing my best. Good luck fren!
Thank you for that testimony
