Ooo, ooo, get rid of that shame! And guilt! Those are two of the Worst emotions! O.K., guilt can be productive if it's from within and has a legitimate basis, but very, very rarely.
You're doing really well, I think! I know I may get slapped for this, but what about thinking of it as limiting it to 3-4 beers? That's better than 10 (incidentally, I Do tell my pdoc Kind Of what's going on with my alcohol use. But when I told him once that I drank 6 drinks one night, he was horrified. I can drink 10 drinks in a day, if I've been drinking the day before.)
Still waiting for the med (was it Effexor?) to help? My humble advice - don't wait too long. I did and I shouldn't have. Make sure you speak up if it's not helping soon.
Again, I think the lower intake is good!
