Welcome Holden~
I understand the sleep issue... got the T-shirt. If you feel committed to cutting out the alcohol if you KNOW you can sleep at night, then maybe try asking for a sleep aid first? I was prescribed Lunesta, and 20 minutes after taking it, I could care a less about alcohol... it's just "where is the bed?" And its time release, so it keeps you asleep, unlike other OTC meds which make you initially go to sleep, but then you wake up three hours later and cannot go back to sleep, so you drink in the middle of the night to go to sleep.
I do not recommend prescription sleep aids long term, but its a stepping stone if your biggest hurdle is overcoming the insomnia. You will find waking up rested and with no hangover is wonderful!
I'm sure others with have great advice to follow.
Welcome,
P4T
