I quit drinking...after i left my husband i drank a lot...then i had a b/f, and broke up with him...2 really nasty relationships that took a lot to leave...drank lots...there was a time it wasnt hard for me to finish a 5th a night. but sense then, i have met lots of new people, got over the depression of the relationships, and became a really happy person for the most part. Drinking became more of a social thing. I would still drink lots, and black out, but i wasnt drowning out sorrows, i was having fun. im almost 2 weeks sober now. if I do sleep, they are bad dreams, and its depressing. I seem to always need reasurance now days that im not worthless. i have been a really happy person sense i been single again, its been about a year. nothing normally brings me down anymore. then I quit drinking. its wierd. I know sleepless nights and night sweats are expected. but not all this!! I know im liked and loved by people. just the anxiety i have now, and the dreams, are...I dunno how to explain it! its driving me nuts
and affecting me in lots of ways
