Hey Eurika, just hang in there. I agree about those pieces, I unfortunately got to my own 'rock bottom' before figuring out it was my own doing and drinking that caused it. Hang in there though! One day at a time, one hour if need be. When you wake up, if it helps, just tell yourself "I've already gone x hours without a drink, what's one more?" Then turn that into a half day, a full day, and soon you'll be celebrating a week, a year, then a decade.

It won't be easy, as I'm sure all of us know. The temptation will be there when hanging out, or with old routines where you might have had a drink to start the night. Just trade that off with a water, or milk, or juice, or whatever you enjoy besides alcohol. Just remember why you want to stay clean, and use that as a mantra when the urges get tough.
