Not sure what your: question is. If you are a problem drinker (binge drinking/ alcohol dependence, drink and drive, etc) or have health or mental condition (s) that is/are exacerbated by alcohol consumption - than quitting is really important. If you need help consider your physician, Alcoholics Anonymous, an addiction medicine specialist or an addiction psychiatrist. Take care.
