hi @Bubbles3
Haven't had a drink for 5 weeks and this is the hardest it's ever been for me when trying to give up. I get urges every day and because I used alcohol as a crutch when thngs got too tough or stressful, I am finding it difficult to think of healthy ways to deal with the stress. I am finding I just seem to be substituting alcohol with sugar.
I was diagnosed with a fatty/enlarged liver, and if I don't quit drinking I'm on the road to permanent liver disease or cancer, so it was something I just stopped. If I can cope with not drinking then I can tackle the issue of diet.
How are you doing?
