Welcome Dan and congratulations on your days!
It depends how you think about things, but whilst cravings are painful and sobriety is by no means easy, itās easier than the endless cycle of hangovers, anxiety and regret. Isnāt it?

Welcome to the forum.
I canāt exactly give you an exact moment it gets better. Sorry to disappoint.
Iām only on day 12 so far and the longest Iāve ever one must be around 4 months. That includes a three month stint in the local rehab centre.
So I wholeheartedly congratulate you first and foremost.
If you need somebody to just vent to feel free to send me a message.
Canāt really tell you much about this forum but maybe I can tell you what used to work for me.
Have a good night.

Welcome Dan! The day will come takes longer for some but it gets alot better. For me it was about the 6 month mark where I realized it wasnāt a daily battle anymore and some days I didnāt even think about it. Stay strong my friend

Welcome and congrats for your 86 days!! Keep going 
Welcome and congratulations on Day 86. Hereās to day 87 and more. As for waiting for the day when itās easier, I think we all are. Recently I found myself craving a drink for no reason other than suddenly having an intrusive thought. Mind you, Iām on day 4274. Iāve never had as strong of an urge. Reading through messages here and doing an online meeting (no in person ones were available at the moment) put me in a better place. Communities like this help make it easier.
