If you’re a fairly heavy drinker (of Bourbon) don’t just stop. You have to ween off alcohol especially if you’re older. Alcohol and benzo’s are two categories of depressants that can actually kill you if you go cold turkey. Do you know your blood sugar and do you smoke?
I’m a former nurse…so.

Way to stick with it. Once you get on the wagon - PLEASE stay on. I have a family member that has been a liar and manipulator. Constantly hurting my nephews through her actions, putting my Dad thorugh hell. Lied right to my face.. and she has done 30 day rehabs & fallen off the wagon several times now.
Sounds like you are doing way better than that - difference is you WANT to fix it. Stay the course & good luck!

Not a smoker. I’ve been weening down a week at a time. Down to 2 oz!!
