Welcome! Lots of support here!! When I first quit I too made about 20+ days before I decided to try having a couple glasses of wine (which lead to more and more, etc... you know the drill). I then finally accepted I was an alcoholic and started logging on here a lot more - not always posting but reading and learning. I read a lot of books on alcoholism and was lucky to have a solid support group in my family and close friends. Lost a few "friends" but in reality they were just people who I knew would always be down to go out drinking with me and not real friends.

I'm 391 days sober today - you've got this!! When you feel like giving in grab a cup of tea (or some other non-alcoholic beverage of choice) and log in to SR. There's always support here.
