It's like pouring steaming coffee over a laptop.. it isn't gonna work until it dries out fully.. but until it dries out, you'll have sticky keys and the S and T buttons don't work. It gets better though! Kicking alcohol to the curb is literally the best thing that has EVER happened to me. There's no need to be negative or pessimistic about recovery.. it's rough at first.. but then you learn to do things without alcohol. I know it's one thing to read it and it's another thing to actually do it, but the best I can say is wait and see.
