The habit of drinking may be harder the break than the need for the buzz of alcohol. Try weaning yourself off the drink first and the act of drinking second. Meaning try to not have an alcoholic beverage, while still having A beverage at the same places, with the same people. Leave out the last ones first then only take every second one with alcohol, then only drink non-alcoholic. You can break the habit of needing a drink in hand later.
