anyone else trying to stop drinking in 16'?

[Grand Cru Boo]

I'm tried of alcohol to be honest. A nice beer here and there is great but that liquor life is not for me anymore. I won't say I'll stop completely but my intake will be strictly celebratory. Plus I don't want to mess up my gains in the gym.

Every year my alcohol consumption just get bigger. The amount of times I drink has increased dramatically too. I probably get shyt faced about three or four times a week. And I can't honestly remember the last time I went an entire month without a sip of beer or with alcohol content in it. I'm a just assume it was before I turned 21.

The only reason why I drink in the first place is because weed some reason always speeds up my heart so I haven't smoked since high school so I switched to drinking. Something that went from an occasional thing became a must and I fukking drink all the time when I don't wanna. Yesterday on my 7th beer I asked why am I getting shyt faced when I didn't want to in the first place?

Drinking has taken over and destroyed my life. I went from working out and being in shape, good looking guy who did a lot of shyt to just sitting in my dark room daily playing video games gaining about 40 pounds and health issues. I spend a lot of fukking money on it. And I always feel like shyt after a night of being fukked up, so I don't know why I continue this shyt.

I don't know why I can't be like a normal person and just drink on spefic occasions or just the weekends or even have a beer or two and be done with the night. But I realize I can't be that person so I'm a completely stop for good. I know 2016 tomorrow and new years resolutions like this are considered corny but I don't care im a take a step into the right direction. I'd rather have corny goals than be dead because I actually enjoy and appreciate life, its just alcohol consumes me.

If anyone else here is thinking the same thing I wish you luck and let's fight this shyt. I miss the old me, don't recognize who I am in the mirror and I don't remember the last time I didn't feel anxiety but I can break this shyt.

Wish me luck coli brothers.

I'm in the same boat.

I actually put down drinking on the 23rd of december. I had a few drinks last night with my friends, but no where to the point of being drunk. Maybe slightly buzzed but that was it. I know for a fact when I did drink heavy I hated doing any type of physical work or activity the day after because i felt so shytty. But i continued to do it. I know that with my ex-wife, she would use my ability of not putting down a drink after I had one to her advantage. she said I was more fun being twisted. For me, if I had one shot, i had to have two, and then three until the point i'm sloppy drunk. I know it is not good and that is another reason why I'm so glad she is out of my life. It's not her fault though, I own up to my own faults and vices. I know what problem I have. Liquor is evil. Now that i'm starting another graduate program, I need to get in and stay physically in shape and mentally sharp.

Now, I can drink beer and not get wasted, because it's not my method to get twisted with it's not a problem. But I even put that down too as well I'll say if I go to a restaurant, i'll have a brew, but that's about it. So here's to healthy living, new changes, and positively coming our way. If your messing with thots, they are just as bad and even more expensive.

No more excuses in 2016, you either do it or you don't.

Used to drink beer, liquor, hard whiskey, etc at college parties and get extra hammered every so often. Did it once a couple months ago and got so bad I couldn't even stand the smell of any kind of alcohol, much less the taste.

Only take a couple sips of something that legitimately tastes good (wine, specialty stuff) at kickbacks now, and realized I don't need to be piss-drunk to stunt or just have a good time. Plus having to take care of shytfaced girls who get gone within 30 seconds had me like to takin' it that far on the regular.

Im the opposite of OP. Im trying to drink more booze, but I aint touching no beer . I will stick fiercely to french red wine and vodka/lime. Along with some bitters and soda.

Moderate consumption tho

A week ago I had a couple of shots and decided I was done with drinking. It just didn't feel right anymore. Went to bars and a house party last night and wasn't even tempted.
