By (user no longer on site) OP   
over a year ago

So I have utterly failed with not drinking in January.

I drink a little bit everyday. I never do big all day sessions.

I have a high stress job in the financial sector and at the end of every day I find I have two or three very stiff drinks. I’d prefer if I didn’t. I feel like I’ve lost control of my life because of it and I want to be more active and not consume spirits the way I do for the past two or three years.

At night when I’m relaxing, what can I sip on that will replace the demon drink but doesn’t contain caffeine and lots of sugars?

As someone who had the same. Issue for a long time. I found replacing alcohol with exercise really helped. It's breaking the habit that's the hardest.

After a while you will feel much fresher in work and as a result a little less stressed.

Would that not be a bit awkward on a night out with friends though?

I cant understand that shit, the guy asks for suggestions to stop taking a drug thats becoming problematic and four posters suggest he takes a different drug to replace it.

I would smoke some . Or get a vape if u don’t want to smoke.

I also wouldn’t smoke a full joint and would start with taking one drag waiting 30 mins and then taking another and see how u feel.

Also I wouldn’t smoke too close to bed time coz u don’t want to ruin ur REM sleep.

There's things you can do to manage stress..distracting urself with hobby or class or exercise, even reading...changing your routine in the evening will make the not drinking easier to cope with.

Eat healthier, more excersises (sex included )

Drink about 2l of mineral/filtered still water, herbal teas (eucalyptus with lavender are the best before go to bed) and definitely stop watching tv when you plan to go to bed.

Good luck OP!

Curiosity.

Is it possible to vape cannabis in Ireland?

I know it's available in US but didn't realise it could be gotten here.

More info please, as my vape is growing cobwebs while I smoke the cancer sticks. This could turn me.

Try tonic water without the gin, loads of ice etc , you can kid yourself it's got the gin in it.

The low alcohol beers are a lot better than they used to be , particularly the Brew Dog one but there's a few.

Good luck.

I am by no means an expert but yes it is possible. You can buy one on amazon that allows you to put directly into the vape. Getting the temperature right is key apparently.

I dont touch the stuff myself but dabbled in the past for reasons similar to the op. I can post the link if you like.

You can also buy CBD oil for vapes you don't get the high but you do feel relaxed, if it's the THC you're after that's also widely available but it's still illegal here so I can't post about it for fear of returibiution

The obvious answer is to quit the job that's driving you to drink.

What you need to do is break a habit.

having a new one makes it much easier.... get out for a walk, read a book instead of watching TV. Exercise makes you feel good, books require both hands

Green tea contains caffeine, although less than most other caffeinated drinks.
