1 week tomorrow

Hi All,

Tomorrow will be one week sober for me after 20 years of not less than a six pack a night, 8 a night in recent years. Tried to quit a month ago after getting up to 10-12 beers a night, but ended up in the ER with a horrible panic attack. Then tried tapering down to quit, but had terrible anxiety and panic the entire month I tried this. Ended up doing a medical detox. I continue to experience anxiety and panic, still fatigued and look physically exhausted (very dark circles under eyes) and am unable to exercise (I'm usually very active, believe it or not). I'll be seeing the Dr. on Monday, but was just curious what experiences others might have had with long term withdrawal.

Thanks much
