I've struggled with addiction [I Addiction]

I spent most of my 20s under the influence of something. This year I finally had to be honest with myself, that I have been drinking and using benzos amongst other things since about 15. I love how I feel sober, food tastes better, my mood is lighter and I have way more energy. The biggest monkey to get off my back was prescriptions mainly ambien and benzos. I pretty much know I have to steer clear of all that stuff. But I still haven't worked out what to do about alcohol. I can stop at a couple of wines and I don't drink every night, but I never feel as good the day after. There is a lot of information out there that addiction is an all or nothing thing and with good reason. I just haven't decided what's right for me yet.
