I have found this thread right here [Advice for the Newcomer and Constant Relapser](https://talkingsober.com/t/advice-for-the-newcomer-and-constant-relapser/11064) has some great info for what to expect these first few weeks and also has some great tips to deal with cravings and boredom.  
A year later I can tell you that by giving up alcohol, I have missed out on nothing and my life is richer in every way. Best of luck 💜
