Welcome, Fluffycloud. I am in a similar place to you.

I have quit numerous times in the last 18 months. The first time I seriously attempted to quit seemed easiest because I was on a big exciting mission. Then each time I drank and tried to come back again it seemed harder. I didn't have the energy and enthusiasm of the first time around. Like you, I was constantly either craving or hungover. Constantly craving is such a miserable place to be too. I was starting to despair of ever summoning enthusiasm for living sober again but somehow I have re-kindled it with the help of this forum. I joined this forum back in 2013 but only really engaged with it for the first time recently.

I am now back to Day 10. But it feels different. The cravings have been fleeting and minimal. Overall it is just feeling good! I recommend sticking around because something special happens here.
