Tapered down and began treating for type-2 diabetes instead. Strict intermittent fasting and a fully PBD for 13 weeks with NAD supplementation on top of basic (senior citizen) multi vitamins and extra b complex.

After the 13 weeks I allowed myself meat again and I will drink root beer or creme soda when I feel "off".

It's a sugar problem. It's hypo. It's a metabolic disorder.

It's been 2.8 years sober after 15 years daily drinking.

Getting sober unmasked my OCD. I take a gaba-b agonist now to treat that and I will never ever drink again.
