Deciding to stop is already a huge step, especially after dealing with it for so many years. Try to focus on one day at a time and build small routines that keep you busy, things like exercise, walking, or just keeping a daily schedule can really help during the first months. Talking with people who are also in recovery or joining a support group can make a big difference because you do not have to go through it alone.

Absolutely I’m down bro

Recovering addict/alcoholic myself. Definitely keeping busy, creating sober routines is a must for me. And finding something to create …. I took up water colour painting. Its learning to find your happy places :blush: :sparkles:

Congratulations on taking the first step! You should be incredibly proud of yourself, and I can’t wait to see many more! Welcome to the club! :light_blue_heart:

Im 2 years clean and would love to make sober friends :heart_hands:t2: god bless all you guys!!!

Good call posting this. Day one is rough, but deciding you want out matters more than people think.
