Hi, @luckonetj - wondering if you'd share more about how you got from what you called a constant and unreasonable rationalization of your behavior with drinking to quitting alcohol? Was altering your thought processes part of what helped you, or what got you out of the rationalization?

Taking alcohol out of my reward system and changing my daily schedule. Wake early and recite my favourite quote while listening to music. Before I was stricken with liver disease I would quit drinking for a long period of time. Exercise help a great deal, I felt good, but I was the same person. Post liver transplant I feel that I have eliminate excuses from my daily life. I think In the past I made up excuses to drink. 😁
