        No way November

        Nov 1 - new beginning. Working on Day 3 today. Feel better not drinking, except I feel so exhausted the first 2 or 3 days not...I would think I would have excess energy. It's Fri and the Weekend coming....trying to plan a lot of busy work to do, to keep my mind occupied. Anyone have any little tips on how to chase away the nagging voice that creeps in every so often, saying....come on, just one more time?
        Yesterday is experience, tomorrow is hope... today is getting from one to the other.
        GOAL 1 - 5 days AF
        GOAL 2 - 10 days AF
        GOAL 3 - 20 days AF
        GOAL 4 - 30 days AF
        GOAL 5 - Set new GOALS

            I had almost 70 days up until late October. After a rocky week of 3 or so binge nights and subsequent hangovers... I'm back, fresh and whole, on November 1st to recommit to sobriety for November at the very least.

              Hey Skull - great to have you here too!! I'm trying to avoid that trap so trying to stick close to this thread.

                Hey, all - and Tom, so good to see she let you go!
                Day 2 of No Way November and I am SO happy to be sober! Tonight I spent the evening that, just over a month ago, would have been eaten alive by a bottle of wine, pottering around and spending time with my husband. And just now, lying in the bath, I solved a business problem I've really been struggling with for the past few weeks. Awesome! Would never have happened if I had been checked out in an alcohol haze. Hang in there, everyone. It's so worth it.

                  Love the enthusiasm, Quake. It's really good to hear. Tomorrow will be 60 days sober for me. Unfortunately today is day 5 of Klonopin withdrawal, which has been brutal. I got in touch with my Doctor yesterday because the symptoms intensified and he said I went too fast on my taper, which I kind of knew- it's what I do. Anyway, he suggested I go back on a small dose for a few more weeks and take the taper slower. I asked him if I could try to ride it out because I really want off these things and he said sure, if you can tolerate the symptoms they should slowly abate in time. So. That's where I am at. Finding it much harder and scarier than alcohol withdrawal but am determined to beat the shit out of it somehow. Hope everyone is doing well so far, let's really kill it this month!
