MB,
Fantastico! You are to be commended! Those first days are hell. I think it got better for me day 6-8, by day 8 I was in good shape. Lots and lots of water. Ditto on the hot baths. I ate sparingly. Slept alot. Also, had a Xanax prescription that helped with nervousness and anxiety. Keep going! You can do it!
:h Best
23 days AF! :H"It wasn't all I wanted, but all I could stand!":bigwink: Alcohol free since April 8, 2008

Good Advice...Slept better last night and was not shaking this morning and balance better. Am now off to excercise at the club and then will go into Seattle and Pick up my Ava and dog, Blix. How are you doing today? We seem to be walking next to each other on this path of sanity. Hugs, mb

I'ts been said that'it's just your brain rewiring itself after the bashing it's been taking over the years. It took me a while but clear thought eventually came back to me.

Day 5...congrats!...I'm in the middle of day three...I feel a bit better, but also worried if my brain is permanently damaged. I trust when you all say it gets better....because it has from 1-3...
I'm shooting for day 4 tomorrow and look forward to hearing what day 5 is like...
I'll be thinking of you:h

Hi SB,
I am proud of you. And thanks for reaching out to me. My experience is that day 4 and 5 are the worst. Foggy head, grumpy, that awfull thirsty feeling that no amount of water can quench. They say it gets better then.
Just had bad news from a friend who landed in hospital today because of depression following a huge binge - his excuse is that it is because his 18 year old son tested positive for drugs. We all know it is a bullshit story - but what can I say to him when my own excuses are so pathetic. Stress and loneliness etc. etc. A member of his AA group committed suicide a few months ago after a drinking spree. This beast has me really scared!
Thinking of you.
Jessiemake the least of the worst, and the most of the best - everyday.

re: 4th day without
Hang in there! Today is also my 4th day without....Just fyi ? I have been drinking every day for the last 10 years, on average ? bottle of wine plus 1-2 whiskies. Rarely got very drunk, but almost never had a day without?So on Monday, I decided to stop (my second big attempt). It is not easy?.I am dreading the weekend.
