Well, Jojo2012, tonight is the first night of the difficult first week most of us have. So just know it is not easy to stop drinking and you will have cravings, but they are only thoughts. You do not have to react to thoughts. Just recognize them for what they are and think it through. Every time you resist it will give you some extra will (for lack of a better word) the next time a thought taps you on the shoulder.

You are making a great decision to stop this now. It will never get easier, only harder. Meanwhile you are just wasting your time (and hurting a lot of people close to you) until you finally figure it out. If you are lucky you will be at the point where you haven't waited until something irreperable had been done. So, keep going....you are doing a brave thing, and I am proud of you. We really care, so keep us updated. Take care.
