Nearly through the last hour of Day Two. This is the furthest I've made it before.

Hello all. This is my first post in this sub, though I've been a longtime lurker.

I've been abusing alcohol for nearly 7 years (the worst of the abuse developing into a severe dependency in the last 3 or so years) and have been trying to quit for the past year/year and a half. I've never been able to make it entirely through the second day without a drink.

Until today!

Yesterday was honestly worse than today, in terms of how I was feeling physically. But today was more emotional because I unfortunately have a physical reminder of a dumb decision I made when I last drank (March 3rd) that I will have to wear for a while. But maybe it's for the best, actually, to have to look in the mirror and be reminded of all the dumb things I've done (and will do) because of drink.

Anyway. Thanks for reading. See you at the end of day 3. 😊
