I’ve stopped drinking for periods in my life before. (I was a moderate drinker at 7-14 drinks per week.) What I’ve found is that for me, it’s primarily just a habit that needs to be broken.

During my longest stretch I had my favorite beer after about six months and was surprised at how lackluster it tasted.
