Welcome!

I'm still early in my quit but what has helped me was...

-I really wanted to be sober more then drinking.

-Eating sweets when the craving/addictive voice [AV] wanted to have a talk. Oreo's are my go to.

-Drinking water when the AV again wanted to lie to me.

-Do something physically active. Even if it was walking do the street and it was just that at the start.

-Don't think past this min./hour or day. Just don't take the first drink. Sounds easy, I know.

As days accumulate, the cravings reduce and life becomes so much easier and nicer without having to plan how and when to drink.

HTH
