I Didn't drink alcohol yesterday (lemmy.world)

Hello everyone,

This is my first post here, and I just want to share a small achievement. I find often that if I drank alcohol yesterday I'm much more likely to drink it again today, and yesterday for the first day in around 2 weeks I had no alcohol, this is making it much easier to have none today.

Anyway, that's all, and it's not a big deal I just wanted to share it.

Good for you. I stopped last September because I was going through tough times and knew that if I continued to drink, it could lead to self destruction as I have a history of drinking alcohol to deal with extreme sadness. I also started working out and eating healthy which when combined with no alcohol, I feel better than I have in a very long time.

Keep it up!
