My alcoholism is just a ridiculous cycle

I'll drink a lot and then get really bad withdrawals the next day to where I never want to drink again. I'll even go for a while without doing so. Then things will get bad for me mentally to where I'm thinking "I could use a drink." Rinse and repeat. 🤦‍♀

I used to be in that space....except I never got hungover just drank every day. The rinse and repeat certainly. Very few alcoholics can stop of their own accord. You need a plan and usually professional help. A supportive partner also helps. If you want it you need to put your sobriety first and above everything else. It is your journey no one elses and everybody has a different journey.
