hmmmm...trying to think of a good response here..I dont want to offend, I am want to help..those AA meetings are ok..just because you try and plan them around the time you usually start drinking..usually the mojo you get from them last about 1 day..and that is enough to make it to the next meeting so you dont drink..My dad was an alcoholic and used to do some crazy shit when he would get drunk..beating up my mom, big asss bonfires in the backyard, guns..you name it..he actually quit cold turkey, layed up in the bed for 2 weeks with the DT's..it was crazy, I was about 9 or 10 at the time..but he did it that way, some people do it another, some dont do it all and die early due to some kind of kindney or liver shutdown..whats that called Cirossis (sp?) of the liver..
Smoke Weed..get a hobby that exerts you physically, work hard and hopefully it will make you so damn tired that you wont want to drink..me personally, I always have had my drinking under control because alcohol highs are not as enjoyable for me..
