Help me to quit drinking
There are many ways to quit drinking -
- you can check in to a rehab if you’ve got the time,
- you can try taking ‘Antabuse‘ (which will make you feel very ill if you drink anything alcoholic),
- or maybe just try white-knuckle will-power,
- you could go to AA meetings and meet a few people with similar problems,
- then maybe work through the 12 steps?
- you could become a gym bunny and spend all day working out to distract yourself (not going to happen, right?),
- you might want to try Kudzu (a herbal supplement which helps you cut down how much alcohol you want to drink),
- best of all though, you can try the most convenient help available - online one-to-one counselling.
Online counselling will help you to quit drinking by encouraging you to change some aspects of your lifestyle, by getting you to look at the emotional and cognitive aspects of your habit, helping you to deal with anxiety or stress a bit better and by giving you some easy, practical tips to cut down the amount of alcohol you drink on a daily basis. It is probably the best option for those who are abusing alcohol, but who are not dependent alcoholics. (see: Am I an alcoholic?)
To quit drinking you first have to ask the question - “WHY am I drinking so much?” Our counselling service will help you to answer that.

I used Kudzu this month to start with and they seemed to help. Still take them when I’m feeling shaky as it’s only been less than four weeks abstaining so far.

Way to go Steve! All the best. I am cutting down and plan on being abstinent all January. Am stocking up the Kudzu and making a plan using this website and a counsellor.
