You might want to visit your Dr. to help alleviate any withdrawal. I agree about being bored. Changing up a routine made a world of difference to me. I go to the gym instead of going home after work. I make our dinner then go for a walk with the dog. I look at this sight for a bit and before you know it, it's 10pm. I have a self imposed bedtime of 11pm. I am taking ambien right now during this down time and it really helps me sleep (I know I won't go to bed tossing and turning all night). So by the time I wind down, most of the day is gone and no sense of drinking for an hour (although I have had 1 glass of wine in that hour but more days af then not).
Supplements
and this sight help. Tried the Topa, it really works, but the side effects were to much for me. The good part is that I took it for three weeks and helped me to change my patterns in that time..
That's all we can do is try..
