i am not religious and do not like the 12 step program, is there any other help i can get.I realise i need help now, i cannot do this my self.
whoever keeps giving a thumbs down to peoples answers here is being an asshole.
i have not given anyone a thumbs down, so please dont think its me, there are a lot of good answers here and i am really grateful people have taken the time to answer.
 
You are a fantastic person to realise that you need help. This means that you will definitely succeed. Use your own willpower. Go to a counsellor. You can find suitable people through your local clinic or GP. Best wishes.
 
Why quit? If alcoholism has given me anything, it's a reason to wake up in the morning. If i wasn't an alcoholic, I can only imagine how sad my life would be..
 
It's all about will power. It's only mentally addicting not physically. you could cut out alcohol all together and just use weed, it's much less harmful and there is no hangover or addiction. and the effects of it don't last as long. But that may be a bad idea, because to some people weed becomes just like alcohol and is then mentally addicting as well. AA is truly the answer. Just give it a go, don't judge it until you've been there at least once.

Alcohol is a drug, yes. But not a drug in the sense that the body is addicted to it. It is a mental addiction. I watched my brother go from a simple social drinker to a full on Alcoholic. The easiest way to stop, is to simply stop. Take those that you have and finish them as you probably can not bring yourself to pouring them down the drain. Besides, you paid for it. Why waste the money? But then just don't buy any more. Find a drink that you can drink instead. Soda, Coffee, anything. My dad stopped drinking this way. Instead of grabbing a beer, he would pour a cup of coffee. Granted, he became addicted to that and would drink 3, 4 pots of Coffee a day... But addiction to Caffeine is a lot better for you then the toxins in any Alcohol. Even the "Light" stuff still has toxins in it that a body can not break down. That is where the damage comes from. The body can not break it down, nor excrete it. Therefore, it is absorbed and it sits. It is the same as swallowing Fiberglas. Can not break it down. It will sit and cause harm. So to stop, simply stop. It is harder then it sounds. But trust me. It works.
