Copenhagen was my addiction... have not had a dip in 6ish years and still today if someone pops the top and I smell it every nerve in my body lights up !!I'd take a real hard look at how much dependence you have on alcohol. Take an honest assessment (there are some questions to ask, google it) - most of the folks who are addicted to alcohol (like me) - can't drink one or two drinks, ever. What's the point, lol?
Quitting for me was one day at a time, and I can honestly say I wish I never took up drinking. Looking back, it never improved my life one iota.
And that sugar craving? Alcohol converts right into sugar. I used to replace it with ice cream, but I was young and worked it all off.
As for still craving it? Not a bit. I miss some of the old habits I've quit, but after 31 years sober, I can tell you booze is the last thing I'd pick back up.
Chewing tobacco on the other hand......
