Two weeks sober. Sometimes it feels very hard and then sometimes I’m so happy with being sober. Tough times but don’t want to go back to Booz.

Early sobriety takes you on a roller coaster for sure. You'll find out after a while that everything will smooth out. When you get that temptation to drink you should play the scene all the way forward.
You may feel good for a short time but sooner or later you'll be right back where you started before you picked up that drink. Then you'll have to start all over again and you'll have more guilt to carry around with you. I
've never heard anyone who went back out, come back and say that it got better. I also hope that you're not trying to do this on your own because your efforts will be in vain. It's always much easier if you surround yourself with people who have long-term sobriety and are practicing a long-term solution. I got sober through the rooms of Alcoholics Anonymous and taking the 12 steps with a sponsor.

That’s what I’m doing also. Meetings are amazing and my sponsor stays on me and supportive. Thanks Dave!
Great, great great! Going to meeting will reap many rewards!
