Get addicted to something stronger like heroin, you won't touch another drop of booze after that!
In all seriousness, from my own experiences:
1) Make an effort to be healthy in all senses. So eat healthily (good nutritional balance, lots of veg and clean meats, drink primarily water, cut out the shit etc), do a bit of exercise, get a good amount of sleep, do a few productive things to keep your mind sharp, maybe read something. I find that when I do ALL of this stuff, then magically a lot of my cravings go on the wane. It takes less effort than you think to do all of these in small quantities and the effects are surprisingly excellent.
2) Keep busy, especially at night. Boredom is your worst enemy.
3) If you really don't need the help like you're suggesting you don't, then a simple solution would be to have some restraint. Next time you're having a meal then just don't pick up the bottle. Next time you're offered a drink just say no. Maybe understand that there's no real excuse to have a drink and it's entirely within your control. If it isn't however, and you just can't help it, then you absolutely could do with the help. You should never be too proud to seek help, and in fact you should have pride that you've picked up upon alcoholic tendencies nice and early before you've done any real harm to your life. If need be get the help, and nip it in the bud properly.
4) Talk to a professional. Your local nurse should suffice. There are people out there who are trained to talk about/manage this and have all manners of plans and solutions and ways of understanding things suitable to you that a bunch of no-face bozos on a football forum almost certainly can't provide.
