I can't count the number of times I said "never again", but something always gave me an excuse to have just one, which led to many more than 1. I am 21 days today and am feeling happy. YOU CAN DO THIS! Just take it one minute at a time. Go for a walk, pick up the phone and talk to a friend, just don't go to the store and buy alcohol. The first few days were really hard, but I got through it. I kept busy or I slept until the craving subsided. Good luck and keep coming back to this forum, it's helped me so much.
