Congratulations my man, it takes a lot of courage to make these decisions and sustain them, I am not a drinker but I did have a serious problem with smoking some years ago, I'm telling you I smoked a whole pack a day and my lungs were on the verge of collapse, fortunately with the right people helping you abstinence can be fought and overcome, it's a matter of facing it day by day and getting hobbies to replace those bad habits (Hive can help).
