Same for me. 40-year "functional" alcohol dependency. Pattern of mostly avoiding drink during the week, desperate for Friday to come around, followed by poor sleep, tiredness, weight gain, regret.

A mushroom trip in Vancouver helped me understand the underlying cause of dependency, what I was running away from. That seemed to be all it took. The need was simply gone and the habit broken. Weekends are more like the energizing productive breaks they always should have been.
