What else does life have to offer????

Well, it certainly offers a lot more than you have on your miind right now. So you stopped drinking for 13 days. That's a miracle for an alcoholic. But what else did you do, tough it out on your own? That's not going to keep you sober. A support group close by with people you can talk to will help immensely.
By the way, saying your daughter will get along just fine without you is a copout. How cruel of you to think that she would be okay. Did you ever stop to think for a minute what her life would be like without you? I suppose not.
Now get off your a$$ and do something about your problem. We will give you all the support you need but as the saying goes.."God only helps those who help themselves."
