Day 5
Posted 09-15-2008 at 08:41 AM by Eclipse
Feeling pretty good. I wouldn't say I feel GREAT but I do know it will take some time to get everything out of my system. The anxiety seems to be lessening which was the worst part of the detoxing for me. I absolutely do not crave wine at all, I even think what it would be like to have a glass of wine and feel nothing. I SO hope it stays like this.
Really didn't sleep that great. Kept waking up, but got back to sleep. Finally at 5:00 I was awake for the day. Walking this morning helped. I bet I walked 4.5 miles. I walked with friends but almost just want to go by myself. We talk and don't really walk hard. I am always a few steps ahead. I think I just want to go and beat it hard and really work up a sweat to get that extra tension out. We'll see. I might try it by myself and see. Then get the coffee, now that I can drink it again and straight to SR to get my fix. It really helps to write it down for myself. A reminder to go back and look at if I need to.
Last night K was drinking quite a bit. I could tell now that I'm not. I walked by his beer and stopped and almost took a drink and then went "Yew, no way!" I don't want to have anything to do with it, not even a sip. I was getting annoyed with him. He was playing with the kids and rough housing, and I was trying to get them to bed. I guess I'm not so fun anymore. I worked really hard around the house all day and just wanted to get to bed. I find I am needing lots of relaxation in the evenings to get to sleep unlike before when I would lay down and be instantly asleep. I am trying a few new things. I am still taking melatonin which helps. I took a nice hot shower then got into bed. I've been trying to get everyone to just quiet down around 9:00.
