First of all, Hooray for you!!! Well done! Way to go!!! A day is a big deal, don't minimize it! Don't think "only 3, 4 or 5 days mean something" this 1 day you did is highly significant! Pats on the back to you.
The reason to stop drinking is (close your eyes, think about what you will be like in 5 years if you drink every night, and by then, probably every day; you will have a red nose and red veins all around your nostrils; will you be caring and nurturing to yourself or anyone else? Will you love yourself or anyone else? )......so, the reason for not drinking is life. Choosing life over the existence alcohol will provide.
Best of all things to you, and hang on, hang on, hang on!
I would still like to be drinking, too. I love to get drunk. But....(see above).
