Wow! It's like crickets over here on my thread! :anyone:Well I'm doing good after my drinking "experiment". The day after I drank I felt fine for the first part of the day, but as the day wore on I developed SERIOUS anxiety-the worst I've ever had in my life. I'm sure it's from not drinking for 30+ days, then I binged, plus the bac?
Anyhow, I'm so much better and I'm more confident than ever in my journey to get my life back.
I'm still cruising along at 160. I don't have any cravings, but I have serious daytime drowsiness. If I were required to drive a road trip or anything like that I couldn't for fear of falling asleep. They key is to NOT STOP doing stuff. I've been volunteering at my daughters' school and I work out every day (bye bye wine belly). As soon as I slow down and sit down to relax I have to fight falling asleep. Because of this I'm going to stay at 160 for 7-10 days. I've stayed at all my other dosages for 4 (sometimes only 3)days. I'm hoping the somnolence gets itself in check. I also have some nausea sometimes after taking my dose (40mg). My memory isn't it's best, but nothing post it's can't solve (Thanks Sam).
The good def outweighs the bad SE's. I'm so obsessed (almost overwhelmingly so) with organizing and getting our house in order. I've organized several closets/drawers etc. I'm not sure if I just have more time on my hands (obv) or I'm just more motivated to DO stuff with that time. Speaking of, I smoke pot daily, but I've found myself waiting longer and longer between smoking. So in this time that I'm not stoned watching Bravo, I'm doing stuff for our house/family. (Most of which I can do while still watching Brovo).
In the spirit of honesty I have to say I was a little down I don't get more feedback on my thread. I see so many regulars comment/cheerlead others. However, I promptly reminded myself that the reason I started the thread was 1. to share my Bac story (reading so many other stories gave me the courage to stop my Groundhog Day life) 2. journal my experience for myself 3. I agreed to share my story when Loop sent me my first round of Bac.
So stopped my pity party--I'm too happy to let that get me down. I'm free from alcohol dominating my life.:danthin::danthin:
