Here I go again!
I'm on day 5 too, and although I didn't exactly bounce out of bed today it has been the first morning since I stopped drinking that i have felt like being part of the real world again. I think the thought of what i've been through the last few days will hopefully stop me going back again.
This is my third serious attempt and this time I am staying off the sugar and caffeine in the hope that I will get back to a real sense of normality. I started at 16 and I have had other problems too. I don't actually know who I really am and this time I intend to find out before it is too late.
Having the support of other people on this site is absolutely vital to me now, I hope i can continue to be honest even if I fail and go back to my old ways.
Here's to a bright future anyway.

I got out of the house and went out shooting (archery) with my husband, feeling pretty good to be outside in the sunshine. Did some stuff around the house long ignored that I coundn't even fathom when I was drinking. It felt almost normal.
I am going to therapy again tommorrow, hope it works out better than last time. And I am going to try and go to an AA meeting too. One day at a time. I am just grateful to have time off this time around. I dont think I would have made it if I didn't, that's how bad it got. I started praying again today too, which is great. My spirtuality used be a big part of my life, but drinking spoiled that also. There is so much to look forward to getting back if I can stay AF.
Thank you all again for your support. I hope soon I can give other encouragement too!
