Been trying to get off the drink and failing

[Thegers82]

Hi there,

Only found this forum through googling for help but anyway Im looking to stop drinking. I get hooked on it easily and end up drunk to the point I piss off my family. Ive been told to take two cans of beer a day one at night and one at morning to control symptoms. I then want to quit altogether on the friday.

I feel like scum for being like this but I only want to get better and be a better person for my family.

Thank you for listening.

Hi Thegers,
Welcome to MWO, you have found a great place. We can all understand what you are going through, we've all been there. I drank way too much for way too many years. I finally decided it was time to quit and I did...you CAN too. It's good that you have a goal to quit on Friday. How much have you been drinking? Please keep posting so we can get to know you!

Usually around two to four pints a day depends really. I had a big blow out a couple of weeks ago where I done a bottle of whisky over the space of a day.

Its upsetting my wife and child so want to stop and am recieving help from the community alcohol team who have got a plan for me to stop.

I think that this forum can help me stop completley as I have tried to stop previously and failed.
