When you quit the first thing you have to do is mentally tell yourself and kno that you never want to drink again. Once that sets in, and you convince yourself that you no longer drink, then the next step is not to drink. When I quit I didn't plan on quitting forever but after awhile I felt so great and was accomplishing so much that I determined that I was done drinking after I was just going to try to take a break from alcohol. For me it just keeps getting better and I think if you give yourself a chance to enjoy the finer things in life, you will soon realize that alcohol was not needed. I never knew life can be so amazing without drinking. Even the simplest things like waking up without a hangover and smelling the fresh air outside is just absolutely amazing while most 26 year olds my age wake up feeling like they got ran over by a train. Stay strong, you'll love it.
