I just passed 6 months myself

It's starting to get hard, tbh. I think about drinking every day

Really? I figured by a huge marker like 6 months it would be easier. Keep it though! You made it this far you for sure can make it even further.

How much were you drinking, what were you drinking per day?

Kobe > LeBron. It's only internet stat nerds who think Lebron is better. Watch the games and stop calculating Lebron's PER with your wristwatch calculator.

I thought so as well. It's the hardest thing I've given up. When I quit smoking Cigs years ago that was super easy, and I smoked way longer than I drank. I hardly drank at all growing up, all the way until I was in my 30s. Then starting in the last 3 years or so I was just drinking a lot. My problem was that I couldn't stop until I just passed out. It was becoming an issue, so I had to stop it

But yeah, it got it's claws into me. It's been really hard.

Yeah 6 months is really tricky right, because it's a long enough time that you forgot how painful withdrawal was but not yet long enough that you know how to live with yourself sober. I got a loved one in AA and she says the first week (you know the DTs and physical withdrawl symptoms that can literally kill you) is the easy part, and that the next year or so is when the real work begins.

Around a 1/2 gallon of peppermint schnapps a day 4 or 5 times a week

I believe you guys can keep up with the sobriety. I don't know much about it but I think you guys know that you can otherwise you wouldn't have made it this far already. Rooting for you guys!

I only drink socially, therefore I haven't had any alcohol since before Covid hit. No biggie to me.

I'm about a month and a half alcohol-free, myself. I've replaced drinking with junk food, though.

Hit 2 years at end of June. Just keep going, drinking is terrible. Life is better without it.

And your liver thanks you for it.
