Congratulations! I stopped drinking around 2017. Although I can easily say I was an alcoholic that's not the reason I stopped drinking. Initially I was navigating depression and failing financially so I cut drinking out of my budget. Eventually I found drinking was interfering with the things I love - art and video games =) So as time went by it became less of a crutch and more of a liability. Now I just have zero desire to drink at all and although I was a fulltime stoner, I've now been 100% sober for the past 2 months, which is kinda weird. I even cut out coffee =)
Good luck to you, you've identified the problem and know that if you stick with your plan you will eventually get to a point where you will not miss it at all and feel better.
