I’m on day 4 and it’s Saturday night and I’m struggling with wanting to go out and drink. I’m doing online meetings, reading and praying.

Is there anyone that you can reach out to either near you or even a phone call?
Please take a moment to “play the tape thru to the end “. You will be amazed that your craving subsides and you were able to resist

and no regrets later !!
Staying sober tonight will make you stronger in this. How do you think you'd feel tomorrow if you relapse?

Keep fighting the urge it’s so worth it you will loose the desire eventually
I think you should be going to some in person meetings.
Hang in there your on the right track.
Day 4? Oh, man. That 1st week is so hard. If you drank like me, and I hope not, you're probably still detoxing.
There's the cold sweats, the nauseated can't even hold a sip of water down gut wrenching heaves, the hallucinations, the extreme sensitivity of your 6 senses. Yes, 6. Taste, smell, touch, hearing, sight, and mind. The crazy insomnia and when you do finally get an hour's sleep your brain wakes up and you start dreaming again in a seemingly futile attempt at cleaning house, and at first it's just jumbled images having no connection.
Yup, this alcoholic's life sure is fun.
Enough of the "Scared StrIght" BS. That was to establish my bona fides.
We've all been there. We know how hard it is and how quickly sobriety can disappear.
Listen to the others here. Get to a meeting, call somebody, or he'll, just post here.
We're all fckups, at least we can be sober fckups together.
