I quit for my health and cause I like drinking way, way, too much. I did alot of self reflecting and realized that I had a problem. After some hard realizations, I found what my triggers were for wanting a drink and tried to replace it with healthy alternatives. To relax after work I would take a short walk and listen to a book on audible. When I was playing xbox I would drink bubbly or la croix. I would try to explain to my family that I was feeling overwhelmed or stressed because I wasn't drinking and understand that the feeling were because of wanting to drink. Every day was another step towards healing and not being dependent on the booze. It took alot of work, it wasn't easy, but eventually I was able to figure it all out and haven't drank for 4 years.

Vin Diesel approves of this joke.

Many years ago before I figured out I was an alcoholic I was heavily drinking at the bar. I insulted one of my oldest friends and his fiancée. That night I lost that friend and it wasn't until a few years later did I realize I had the problem. You may lose your friends, but it's ok. You will make more, but what you need to do it figure out why you got so angry and aggressive and fix that part of you. Not drinking will only solve a surface problem and until you get to the root of that problem you won't truly make a difference that will lead to life-long change for the better. I wish you luck and a peaceful future.
