Thanks so much to everyone who has helped me so far. !!! I only discovered this site a day or so ago, but I think it is going to be a godsend.
I'm looking for a little guidance about how to come off my heavy drinking. right now it's a least a bottle of wine a night, sometimes as much as two. I don't think I'm physically addicted to the point of where I'd need medical help, but I'm trying to figure out the best way to approach it. I quit totally last year for a while but I felt so depressed and blah that I went back to it. also,a few recent nights I 've had just 2-3 drinks. I don't think I'm going to try Topamax or other drug yet since I'm already on Zoloft and Clonazepam. Should I try to quit cold turkey or should I try to taper off?????
I am planning to get the book and some supplements, definitely kudzu and some of the things that will get me healthy again. Also think I am going to join the Y which would give me a place to go after work, a little less lonely time at night, along with of course the exercise. I am not sure about the tapes ...
But as to doing it cold turkey, or just trying to taper off, any suggestions? Right now, my long-term goal is moderation, although I will have to see if that is doable. Thank you all so much ...
PS: my raging alcoholic brother-in-law has been in the hospital for six weeks after a seizure, hardly any liver function and internal bleeding and I swear the man is STILL in denial .. I give all of you, and myself, credit for admitting we need help!!!!!
