You need a new ritual. My drinking ritual started at 5:30 pm every weeknight and somewhere between 2pm and 4pm on weekends, and concluded when I was passed out in my chair.

When I first quit, I was pacing like a tiger in a cage, during those times when I’d previously performed my drinking ritual. I realized I needed to be doing something else, somewhere else, during those times. I started a new ritual. I walked for 60-90 minutes while listening to podcasts. Later, I started martial arts classes. New ritual helped me tremendously.
