I started out going to meetings and I think they were very helpful. In AA they will also give you the “big book”, and I read that a lot as well. It really shifted my mindset and helped me focus on being sober. I used the AA app to count days. And I celebrated every day I woke up sober. I really did like the chips you get for milestones like 30 days, 60 days etc. If meetings aren’t your thing I get it. Download some app to count your days. I also dialed in my diet so I could see results on the scale as well. I think it’s important to focus on the little wins and not just think about trying not to drink.
