Hi. Millions have stopped drinking for various periods of time but for many the trick is to stay stopped.
The first challenge is to be honest with yourself about your drinking and expect your mind to not be helping you for the short term. It will make many excuses for you to have a drink which is the worst thing for us to do. Reading the posts here will help you what to expect. Many years ago I chose AA for my sobriety help.
The bottom line is "if we don't pick up the first drink we don't have to get sober AGAIN."
Keep coming as there are always good answers on these forums, but you have to ask.

BE WELL
