This is so exciting - and good for people's health. My first "go" at sobriety was in January 2020 - I did a Dry January (I drank on Feb. 1, but just one drink . . . that day).
While my journey to control my drinking was a bumpy one, that Dry January taught me I could, in fact, go without alcohol. My last drink was in January 2021 (it was actually way too many drinks that day) - and I don't regret leaving alcohol behind.
Thanks for sharing your journey and perspective.
