Today, my heart rate is elevated and I don't like it. Never again.
Today is my first official day sober with the intent of never going back. Ever onward.
To the other patriots who have also quit, hats off to ya. I'm right behind ya.

I look forward to never drinking again.
Good move, buddy. I’m at about 7 1/2 years. It’s like anything else: it sucks at first and then it sucks less and then it’s not even a challenge anymore.
It’s cheesy, but they’re not wrong when they say, “One day at a time”. Don’t stress about tomorrow. You can worry about that later. Just don’t have a drink right now. My inbox is open if you need anything.
I cannot name any other context where these lines work. They can easily be used to justify drinking. "Borrowing happiness from tomorrow" and all that.
But beating addiction is always good.
You never beat an addiction, you can only not drink/do drugs one day at a time but you never lose that addiction. If you indulge in your addiction you will keep on doing it until you again gain the fortitude to quit and that may or may not happen again.
