11 days sober. Does it get easier?

I stopped drinking 11 days ago. My longest streak for this calendar year is only 4 days, so I’m already almost three times past my personal best.

But it’s hard. I’ve hard a particularly rough week, and the lack of alcohol has made me particularly irritable on top of it. Lacking sleep and a good amount of life stress isn’t helping.

I know that’s life, but does this get easier?
