Being sober will give me better sleep, after a few days, as I know I will be restless for a few nights. It will give me more energy to exercise and to cook better meals. That is my focus.
Yes, sorry, I didn't see some of your other posts til after I posted mine. My suggestion was more about trying to be gentle to yourself and simplify your choice not to drink as a start. Ie, 'I want to be healthy today, so I won't drink', rather than overwhelming yourself.
It's tough with so many external influences around you. You have support here and everyone wants you to find that happiness without drinking.
