Well, I'm well into Day 5. That's the good thing.
The bad thing today is that I'm having the worst cravings. Seems strange! Thought it would be the first few days. Today my stomach is all knotted and tense and I am really feeling kind of weak.
And all I can think of is how much I want a drink.
On other boring fronts-- I've been sleeping much more than usual during the last several days. I don't know if it's the lack of booze or not (I mean, usually it helped me sleep, or so I thought). I come home from work and go right to snoozing. At least it helps me get through the night (my prime drinking hours).
OK, things in my life seem super boring these days. Absolutely YAWNsome.
ANYWAY-- HERE"S THE WORRY
I'm going out to dinner with a friend tonight, and it's the first time since my AF decision.
I don't know what to do.
How should I handle this?
I'm afraid of questions about why I'm not drinking, of being tempted, and MOST of having to eat a whole meal calmly w/o alcohol, when it will clearly be on my mind-- as I usually drink when out in restaurants. Especially with old friends. She'll notice, I'm sure.
Aack.
Feeling a little unsteady on my feet today.
