[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Been there, OP. I wasn't sneaking and I didn't have a hard time stopping once I set my mind to it... but it took me a while to set my mind to it. Try to push past each evening "event" without a drink, and then set your sights on the next one. I.e., get through the toddler's dinner with no drink, then aim to get through bath/bedtime with no drink, then do an hour of work or watch an hour of tv with no drink, and so on. I found that at a certain point in the evening, I wouldn't want to start drinking and so if I could just get to that point, I'd be good.

My spouse wouldn't be judgmental, but he also wouldn't be very helpful, so I didn't involve him much except to mention a few times I was trying to cut back on weeknight drinking. It also helped to have no wine in the house (my drink of choice) during the week. I could always pick up a bottle on my way home Fridays. Good luck to you. [/quote]

Not OP but I can totally relate to this - my trouble time is like 6pm-8pm - no interest in day drinking or drinking into the night but I can regularly put away a bottle during that time frame.  This advice is helpful![/quote]
