Hello everyone 
I am new to the forum. I have been sober since 01/01/2021 and quit smoking as well. They go hand in hand. The struggle is real but I have my small goals set and the long term is worth it. Taking things one day at a time for now.
I am happy to have joined here as reading everyoneās stories helps to know that I am definitely not alone

Welcome, and GOOD ON YOU 
you have the courage within to do this. Life is better sober. This forum is a great place, read as much as you can and reach out when you need to. It gets easier, with time. Just donāt drink that first drink, say No. Tell yourself no. Donāt listen to that voice in your head that will start to try and convince you to have ājust oneā. If you donāt have āoneā then there wont be a second, third or more. You got this 
Sober life = our best life.
