Expect discomfort.
Part of your own brain will fight you very hard about not drinking.
It will lie, bully, promise, flatter, and cajole.
It will tell you you will never be able to feel OK without drinking.
It will tell you you are better now, and able to drink normally.
It will tell you it doesn't matter.
It will beg you for comfort.
It will promise you next time will be different.

It is a liar and a thief. Mine would have killed me if I let it.

Starve it.
The discomfort will pass.
But you have to starve it.

You can do this.
