It really does get easier to not drink Justme.
You will actually get to a point where you prefer the feeling of sobriety, which I never thought would happen to me until it did.
I love how I feel now-at peace, not controlled by my cravings for booze and escape any longer.
Just keep doing the right thing in these early days and it will come. Post here often when the cravings / boredom / anxiety hit and know each time you resist, your “sober muscles” get stronger and your life slowly will move away from centering on booze to better things.
Take up a hobby, exercise, eat good food, reconnect with others.
Abstaining isn’t the same as recovery.
You’re doing great. Hold the line.
