If you are really addicted to drinking then the best way would be just to cut it off and do other activitices so that drinking is not on your mind. The second alternative would be to shift form hard liquor to beer. Have a beer once a day which you then slowly reduce.

If a person drinks regularly in 24 years of young age it seems he has no parantal guidance or elder's support to ger rid of it. It is suggested that if you start thinking of your life and responsibility towards family,office(or education)and community as a citisen of thecountry, you will not any one's advice,support ,or guidance to leave this life killing habit of drinking.think about it and start acting.

its a welcoming thing from ur side that u realised that you are drinking too much and in a mood to quit it. just keep up the confidence on you and start decreasing the dose of the drink what u consume and gradually dont go towards it. if u quit all at once there is a chance that u can get attracted towards it. no need to sit for any council or any such things just keep faith on and start the day with new aim(stop drinking)

Hi,First of all iam glad to hear that you have realised to get out of that habit and that itself is half way through for you to come out of it,,,iam not an expert but still i would like to share few tips probably which might help you...you start thinking positive and try to control yourself by not getting into tense situations and depressions and keep yourself always busy and concentrated and engage in some physical activities which would exhaust you like working out in a gym and swimming etc which later might force you to drink fruit juices to refresh and even then if you cant just try drinking something else in place of those alcohol supplement with juices and make sure you would first of all be very firm and determined in your decission which is 80% of your efforts.May be these tips might help you and wishing you happy days and all the best in the future...
