    Day 13 and going strong, (well today!)

    Hi All...been awfully busy and hadn't had much time to talk...but have been AF for 12 whole days and beginning 13 today. I actually had a rough couple of days mentally and wasn't feeling my best physically. I sorta "retreated" into myself and just trudged through with NO ALCOHOL! Much better today!

    Sleep....hmmm, I'm sleeping but my dreams are CRAZY! I always have had dreams, but not so many, and so off the wall...

    Hope you all are doing well....and staying strong!

    You are doing FANTABULOUS!!!!!! Lucky 13! I find 13 to be lucky...my fav # and happens to be my b-day (May 13--though I've decided not to have anymore b-days).

    I can't say anything about the dreams, but the sleeping has been great!

    Good on you that even though you have a couple rough days, bound to happen, you handled them like a trooper!

    Excellent job!!!!

            Hi everyone, I didn't have time to write yesterday but did squeeze in 15 or 20 minutes of reading posts just to keep my mind wrapped up in the right place. I t was kind of a hard day yesterday. My husband has been bullying me into counseling with a lot of finger pointing that his life is a disappointment because of me. He travels so much with business and that bothers me. Last week he said that if I saw a counselor, the one he chose, on Wed or Thurs of this week that he wouldn't go on this next trip at the month's end. I said that I would. Then he said that he didn't mean it, that he was going to go anyway. That hurt. Well, I kept my side of the agreement and went to the appointment yesterday, we'll see what my husband's word is worth. I'm on day 6 now without drinking and reading about how much better everyone else is feeling who has stopped drinking. I feel like I have no energy, bloated, lacking sleep (despite 9mg of Melatonin), bitter, and my eyes are puffy all the time - what's with that. Everyone else seems to be feeling sooo wonderful. I'm not shaking anymore and the nighttime jerking has gone away but I just feel worse all around than when I was having the wine in the evening. Walt

              Hang in there Walt - it's gonna get better! I think.

              Good for you for keeping your word. I've realized a long time ago that we can only control our own actions, not someone else'. But I totally understand that hubby's behavior is hurtful. ((Hugs))

              Stay strong, ok?

                Awesome job, Panacea!! I'm only.... ummm... 13 days behind you! LOL

                You know, I've noticed more dreams, too. Even though I haven't been AF, just less.
                Anyways, you're doing wonderfully - please keep it up. Any # above 1 is such an inspiration.
