That's a great idea. You will probably see advice to treat yourself as if you have the flu or are recovering from an illness. Guess what - you are recovering! Treat yourself well. Eat lots of good food and drink lots of water (with lemon if possible). I survived my first few days by eating whatever I wanted - pizza, snacks, salads, etc. Now is not the time to deprive yourself of anything but drugs and alcohol. Give in to food cravings as they occur. You will feel less deprived.
Is all the alcohol out of your house? If not, dump it down the sink - you don't need it anymore!Well it's all right now. I've learned my lesson well. You see you can't please everyone, so you've got to please yourself.

You poor thing :l
Do as advised & read here for the day if necessary.
And I reiiterate EAT - till you are 'stuffed' - the craving for alcohol magically disappears when we are full whatever you fancy pizza, chocolate cake, etc.
You will feel less deprived.

Cuddle, glad you made 9 days! Sometimes it has taken many of us to make 2 or 3 days. You have received great advice. The only thing you have to do today is not drink. Please keep on reading rather than drinking. You have already had the wagons circled around you with much support, caring and love.Enlightened by MWO

You're not a strange one at all Cuddle
Been there, done that... even after 9 months of sobriety.
Much wonderful advice here already.. I really have nothing to add... except my support :l
Be kind to yourself, read, post, sleep, eat, pray, love.. no wait.. that's something else
You're on your way out... few of us can get it right on the first attempt. Get up and dust yourself off. You can do this... we all can.Okay, WHO put a stop payment on my reality check?
