Find a yoga studio. Seriously it will massively help cravings for just about anything. Also if you do it right it's a trip.
I'd start with a restoring class, and then basic beginners one. Then try to find a pranayama practice that meets once or twice a week. Pranayama is a focus on breath work with your movements and postures.
Use the money you used on alcohol to attend these yoga practices.
You don't need AA, some people do, but I personally don't think you do.

Like I said mate; kratom, etizolam, GHB and weed are all starters. I would also try excercise, just basic hippie stuff. Learn how to cook. Get some hobbies maybe

Don't replace alcohol with other types of depressant drugs!

Yoga has helped me at every point in my life. Seriously consider it. Whether it was flu, stress, sleep, cravings anger etc. 1 hour with yoga changes my mood completely
Also; I would try to download the "Yoga studio" app. It is like infinite classes for yoga for life for like $3. I havent been to a yoga studio in years

That's sweet. I recommend the studio environment for structure and as a way of forcing yourself to do it when you wanna be lazy.
Dude I've been with my girlfriend for years but if you are single have fun with the Yoga chick's!

Stop NOW It only gets worse. I battled booze for years and years. I lost many friends and lots of life and opportunities. Just stop, please.

drink a lot of water and work out. keep drinking one beer with meals if you are seriously addicted. If that doesnt work go to a detox and find a new hobby, working out and water is essential.

alcohol is a refined sugar and has a bunch of calories your body will need those calories from another source
pleasure principle type shit
pick up something meaningful to do with your time
i was pretty heavily into drugs mostly hash oil and weed like a year back, almost got fucked by the dea, decided to deal with my addiction and now i have like 6 months of drugs besides a music fest
aa helps some, didnt do much for me
finding shit to keep my mind active helped most learning how to make money online, music, competitive gaming, writing... etc

btw there is saying: around here only one or santaclaus does not excist
