trident,
Just start with today. Don't think about tomorrow, all that you need to do is to not drink today. Tomorrow, do the same.
I have done that for 33 days. Sometimes it's tough, that's what things like this place is for. Do whatever it is that's necessary. Come here, I am new here, first time today. All that I know is that if I am posting on here or going to an AA meeting I am not drinking.
You can do this!
