I can not say this enough---YOU can not think of it that way. You must get up each morning and believe it is just for this day that you cannot have a drink, then get up the next day and believe you just have to get through this day........needless to sayn if you take it minute by minute, hour by hour, day by day--one day you will wake up and not even think about "Drinking".
You will ten be going home from your long and arduous climb out of Alcoholism.

It really does work by thinking small baby steps. Don't look at the big picture. You will have plenty of time to reflect on the journey once you are at home in the arms of sobriety.

Good luck. Good life
