Congratulations! When I gave up alcohol for the final time I had a much harder go at it. Took me over a month to feel good. But in my case I had a 30 year history of alcoholic drinking to overcome. Been sober now for 10 years. Love to hear about newly sober people. Again, Congratulations!
Congratulations to you, as well! Thankfully, I haven't been struggling with it for more than a year. I recognized it for what it was right away, given my family's tendency toward alcoholism and my father's history with it. I saw it firsthand, and as soon as I realized that I was feeling terrible without a drink every night, I knew what had to be done.
Good to hear of your success!
