I was gonna write a long post but it got too personal. I have serious issues yet I've been weening myself off of hard alcohol the past few years and down to just drinking beer and I want to be completely alcohol free by the time I turn 40.

It was a promise my grandfather made me agree to a few months before he passed away in 2018. He was the only person in my family that I truly respected because he went through a lot of bad shit in his life. I hit the bottle hard after he died then stopped drinking liquor and switched to beer.

The beer is fucking up my digestive system more than rum and whiskey, and I don't want to look like a bloated beer belly guy. I need to stop. Now. And I'm saying this as I have 2 four packs of 211 in my fridge atm.

AA doesn't work. NA doesn't work. I did 7 months at the Salvation Army Adult Rehabilitation Center and that didn't work. I tried shrooms, DMT, Salvia and those didn't work.

I live in Wisconsin and at least 25% of the state's economy is related to alcohol. There are 14 bars, 4 liquor stores, and 3 stores that sell beer within a 1 mile radius of my home.

I need to move to some state like Utah where it's really difficult to get alcohol.

I need help.

You're right. I just want the beer buzz without the beer gut... /s

No, I really want to quit for my health and my promise to my grandfather. Not just for myself, but for my family and maybe even my friends & coworkers.

Then just stop. Don't have alcohol in your home. Stay away from people, places , or things that trigger your desire to drink.
