I'm writing a blog about stopping drinking

Hi I have acknowledged that I have a serious problem with alcohol and decided that I need to stop drinking full stop. I am doing dry January as my starter but intend to do dry February next and see how I go. I have been finding it really difficult and the temptation to drink wine is there every night but so far I have stayed strong. I decided to start a blog above my experience and observations in the hope that other people will be able to relate to it so it might help them too. (Also hopefully reading back on things I have written will help me to become stronger.)
I'm guessing other people reading in this topic (alcohol addiction) are maybe going through something similar - or have conquered it - or just thinking about it - so I'd love to know if you think it is ok, if not please be honest if you think I've got it wrong. Also what else would be useful content to include? Thank you 🙏🏻

Hi I'm sorry I forgot to update this post. I have moved the content of Ignite Your Sparkle over to my newer blog which is called Sunshine, Raindrops and Tea in the Garden. This is about my sober journey and also about other things as well, some related, some not.
I am really pleased that I have managed to achieve 49 days without alcohol so far 😊
I'd love you to read my blog, it's at sunraintea.com
