(just relating my experience of gentle quitting, not saying there's one right way... That said, drinking does do damage to your body, and the directions you can go with quitting are varied, so exposing people to more examples...)

My day-to-day drinking massively reduced with Naltrexone, but now I find myself intensely bored a lot of the time, with occasional bouts of extreme stress when "something happens" (tm).

I have some signs of liver damage and gout! Sometimes I go on a bender if I can't poop and don't have anything else going on.

Given how severe I was, I'm surprised I didn't have any physical withdrawal symptoms but I reduced drinking pretty slowly. No rehab center. Group felt weird af to me.

My alcohol tolerance has also severely gone down.

I still drink, sometimes a beer or two at lunch, sometimes a bender because I feel backed up or stressed (obvs still a problem), but I'm nowhere near the 15 litres of goon a week (goon being cheap wine, the cheapest form of alcohol in Australia, it comes in a bag).
