The good news is that you want to stop drinking and have identified positive goals and negative impacts.
The bad news for me in this situation was that this would take effort and work. I was a pretty sick drunk and I needed counseling, medication (Antabuse), AA and intervention by the legal system. But I was willing to do all of it, to do whatever it took. Maybe you’re not that far gone yet. But you will need to work and hurt a little to get the freedom you want.
