I quit because I realized it added absolutely zero positive things to my life. Thirty years later I have never had a single drop. I've also never awakened with a hang over or regret from drinking. For me its been nothing but positive. Especially when I look at the cumulative effects that drinking has had on some of my friends that have chosen to keep at it. That in itself is a great motivator. I wish you all the best on your journey whatever you choose to do.
