Default 1999 chevy suburban starting issues

Hello, i have a 1999 chevy suburban, for a while i noticed in the morings only that the truck struggles to start some what, it seems as if the battery was stressing to start it, but this is only in the morning, still with one turn of the key but i just had to hold the key till it started.

Recently i tried to start her up and got nothing but dim lights and a clicking sound from the starter not getting enough power to actually turn over the engine, when i get a jump she works perfectly, but 2 to 3 days later i have the exact same problem needing a jump. I drive less than 15miles a day, am i right in thinking i have a bad battery since the truck actually last 24-36 hours before i need a jump agian? Please help and thank you all

Default Battery.

Sounds like the battery to me. Take it to autozone or a store like it and they can test the battery for free. Should be a easy fix.
