My first day I was at work, then called my food friend and told him I was going to AA. Then I went for 120 days in a row. I read the big book. I went over and over the 11 steps. I kept busy doing things I did not want to do while drinking. I studied for exams, painted, cleaned house. I cooked and started to wlr out as well. Big again not all on the first day. Keep busy
