I owe it to myself to not drink alcohol😊
One week sober,, it’s amazing how I went from not drinking five years ago, to drinking three or four beers every night. No withdrawal symptoms except for craving sweets, anxiety, and insomnia. Chocolate seems to help with cravings for some reason. Every time I have a craving I remind myself that I deserve to be healthy. It’s hard ,, very hard,, but as time goes on I believe it will get better!
You're right, it is hard - at first. But it gets better and easier the longer you stay sober.

Stay vigilant.

Glad you’re looking after yourself, it shows that you care about you.
Take care
