Dear  Christina:

I wish you well on your day 1 and  every day after. The guilt you mentioned, I hope you don’t allow it to stand in your way of abstaining from alcohol. There are  ways  to  reduce your distress (over the guilt and otherwise) other than drinking alcohol, such as taking long walks  outside, other types of exercise, relaxing yoga and such.

Do post anytime you’d like, on your first  day, second, and on. I would be here to reply  to you. Hopefully, other members will as  well.
