This. Talk to your doctor about assistance. There are several drugs out there now they help kill the desire for alcohol. Glp-1 is surprisingly helpful. Vivitrol and Campral are two more common ones. Give your body a helping hand with the quitting while working on the emotional or mental reasons for drinking. And perhaps it's not something bad. I "need" a non alcoholic drink of some sort while driving. Diet Coke for decades and now sparkling water. I don't know how to describe the need. Not an addiction  but highly uncomfortable if I don't have it. A habit developed over decades. I obviously have no physical addiction to water while driving .  But there is something powerful there. You could have something similar without a full blown physical addiction.  But it helps figuring out what that is so you can stop.  Our minds and bodies are complex things. Don't be afraid of a little assistance as you sort things out. Wishing you the best. This is a fabulous step on your overall health journey. [/quote]
