Hi and welcome,

It is amazing that you want to stop drinking for all the right reasons.

If you need to see a Dr. Do it.

Otherwise, sounds like you can make it 2 weeks without drinking.

That means you can get through the withdrawals on your own.

But, then the hard stuff begins. The anxiety. The..I could use a drink phase.

The first month of sobriety was hell on earth. Passing up ice cold beer, shots of tequila was tough. The anxiety was maddening. I ate when I craved. I ate every 2 hours. Stayed hydrated. Slept a lot.

It got easier each day. I wanted to be clean.

I do BJJ and work out a bit. Being clean is the only way to go.

Be proud of sobriety. Being a drunk is no way to go through life.

Alcohol is poisen.
