The same way everyone stops: Rock Bottom.
I put up with years and years of blackouts, embarrassment, remorse, accidents, betrayals, destruction, injury to myself and others.
It was finally enough. It's different for everyone and some never find it. Some drink until it kills them. I've seen it. I've lost friends barely 40 because they never slowed down no matter what the doctors said. I've seen guys with jaundice who would be refused service at 9 out of 10 bars because they loved him and wouldn't help kill him. And I watched them at that tenth bar, sitting alone, all yellow, drinking their lives away.
I am eternally grateful that I hit my bottom and reversed course. But I can't help anyone until THEY make that decision to quit. And once they do I'll be there for them no matter what.

This. I watched a guy drink 20 beers a day for about three years, no idea how long he'd been at it before I met him. One day he's in the hospital with his lower half all bloated and swollen with fluid. The doctors tell him "you drink, you die".
He gets his act together for a few months but soon he's right back at it and after another year of jaundice and other liver issues and hospitalizations he's fucking dead. Didn't even make it to forty. And about a month ago his ex wife who drank hard and made it another 4 years died of booze also.
I hope you guys see these types of stories and accept your fate or get out entirely. You know who you are. And dead by your mid-forties is your future if you keep going like this. Some of you truly do want that and are beyond caring. Others just haven't hit their bottom yet.
