I know it doesn’t help you, but weed really helped me curb my alcohol use. I’m in the same boat. I self medicate and drink too much. I’m worried about my liver, but I don’t drink and drive and only drink beer.

I stupidly have given myself a nicotine addiction with sachets recently that I need to fucking stop. I noticed nicotine makes me grumpy, which is a drastic change for me.

Quit drinking and you will crave sugar like crazy. When I was in the navy, I’d start craving sugar about a day and a half after getting underway. Then we’d pull in somewhere, I’d get hella drunk and not crave sugar, go underway, rinse/repeat.
