Greener- I think that with all of us addicts it is so hard to quit because of the fact that we rely on the drink/ drug to help us deal with all uncomfortable things in our lives and when we get sober there are still problems there for us and no coping skills to fall back on. Add to the fact that most of us drank alone and it makes its THAT much harder because when you go home at the end of the day and there are problems in ur life then you have that battle inside ur head to deal with. The alcoholic says "feed me" and the rational sober/ healthy person has to say "no" and win the battle every single day. Its taxing, but you're right it gets soooooo much easier and much better as every day goes on. You are doing such a great job! 58 days is something to be proud of!!!!
