Welcome to the forum! Way to go on day 2! One thing that really helped me in early recovery is to write down my reasons for quitting. I wrote down exactly how i felt and expressed how desperate i was to quit using. Then every time i had an urge to use, id read my list over and remind myself why I wanted to quit. It really helped. That and distraction (like the gym). I also attended online 12 step meetings thru the Intherooms app. Anything to stay recovery focused

Here you will find online meetings:
Welcome here Alejondro 
What helped me a lot in my recovery was being here a lot. Read others stories and feel the connection so I felt less alone in my addiction.
Venting about my own struggles big ore small to get them out of my chest. Asking for help when cravings kick in instead of picking up.
A thread where I was every day the first year of my recovery was this one:
Check it out! You will be welcomed there! It’s a very active and surportive thread where we check in sober to keep ourselves accountable.
See you around Alejandro,
If you have questions just ask!

@Alejandro8419 welcome! What you wrote sounds familiar. I didn’t drink daily but when I did it was heavy handed. I’ve stopped many times but sooner or later tought I could moderate. Surprise surprise it never worked.
I restarted my journey this week. We can do this.
