When does it get easier?

Hi there, this is my first post in this part of MN as I've managed what I couldn't before.

It's early days, I'm sober now for just 11 days. For years I have drink between 1-2 bottles of wine a day plus probably qtr bottle of whisky, maybe more if I'm honest. It was years. Many years. I drink instead of eating.

My eyes are clearer. And my skin. But I am so so tired in the evening and morning. Even typing this message is making me salivate. So I miss it.

When will it get easier?
Will it?
When I am having a bad day, which is often recently, I struggle to not buy booze. The only way I have managed is to not have it in the house. I am a hair's breath away from succumbing.
Please tell me it gets easier.

I'm drinking Diet Coke. Oh the fun!
