Just Starting this journey
Hello,
Want to introduce myself, I have been drinking heavy for the past 2 years. Seems I couldn't get enough at times, I have been very fortunate that I haven't had any problems with the law yet.

Welcome Rodrdh
I stayed away from social gatherings where there'd be alcohol for a while - it was just easier for me that way. I had no confidence in my ability to turn down a drink.
I had to let those 'sobriety muscles' grow.
Doesn't mean you need to be a hermit tho - think of things to do that don't involve alcohol....sports, exercise, hobbies, interests, going for a pizza, for coffee or to a movie etc..
As for cravings - there are some great tips here
