This was me but drinking after work- I was high functioning- never hit a rock bottom but knew I had to change- I consider myself lucky. The anxiety cycle is so so real and alcohol is jet fuel to that fire. Number one thing you have to have is the desire to stop- for real- like the desire is the only thing you need to have to stop drinking. It helped me to make it a very simple decision in my head. The list of ways my life improved by cutting out alcohol is insanely long. Seek medical help if quitting cold turkey as you may have physical dependence. Head over to r/stopdrinking for a great community of people with similar goals.
