It’s a good question, and I’m glad that you posted it. I am in a similar situation. For me, I am becoming wearier and wearier of drinking - but having the access to an external and accessible release is appealing. I don’t have advice but I do have a personal target: I smoked cigarettes starting 20+ years ago. And over the years I got distance from it little by little.

Sometimes it’s good and tasty and I enjoy the experience, other times it tastes like crap and I know I’ll feel even worse later so I cut it 1/4 in. That’s where I want to get with alcohol (and I’m certainly getting closer).
