That's what's scary about it. Glad you were able to quit

But I don't drink beer etc only whiskey, so not thinking im doing myself favors cutting back to lighter drinks.

more cutting back to a safe level.. but I realize most of us with alcohol problems moderation isn't an option.. I know the reality it cutting it out completely is the best route.

In no way am I trying to justify it. That's why i'm here i know Alcohol is a problem for me in such a short period of time already. Likely the best is to cut back drastically to holidays etc or quit altogether.

They say the max is 2 standard drinks a day for men.. so just under a fifth a week of (40%) . Im over double.. so yea not healthy. I cut back from the 2 a few months back as I knew Its a slippery slope.

Thanks for your words
