Done smoking but wanna stop drinking

Hi everyone, so I have been clean from smoking weed for one month and I have no intention to start again but i do wanna stop drinking also. Can I get some tips to stop drinking?

just make up your mind :slight_smile: just like the feeling u have about weed is the same feeling u need to have about drinking you need to really just be done. you’ve taken the right step by saying i wanna stop n being here. take it one day at a time im 5 days sober would of been 10 but i messed up. none of us have it figured out we just know that we dont wanna drink anymore good luck hun #fighting

It’s not that I have a drinking problem but every time I do drink I feel like complete shit after so idk what to do :confused:

@Vendettix Stop drinking for 1 week and see how you feel. This will tell you a lot about yourself. Put “stop drinking for a week” in the Google search engine and read some articles. If you don’t have a drinking problem, may I ask how you found yourself here?

So I got on here because I wanted to stop smoking weed and I have stopped for a more than a month. But I’ve been drinking more frequently than before. Not that I think I have a drinking problem, but I just feel shitty thinking that I need alcohol to have a good time

It sounds like you are just replacing weed with alcohol, you probably don’t have a “specific thing” problem you probably just have an addictive behavior problem like most of us. As long as it is getting some kind of high it will be okay. But the truth is you don’t need to drink to have fun, and I think you realize that hence being on this forum. I would quit drinking for a few weeks and see how you feel. I can promise it’s only going to get better if you do. When you’re addicted you don’t get high or drunk because you want to be high or drunk it’s more of a subconscious compulsion to do it. Why else would we do something we know we hate doing? Stay strong friend :slight_smile:
