I'm Having A Wicked Hard Time

It's my first full day sober--I'm happy for that. But I feel severely anxious, restless, crying, can't sleep, and the emotional pain I am feeling is a little shocking to me. I am so tired and all I can think about is taking care of my kids tomorrow. I yelled a scary lot today. My oldest goes to preschool and then to Grammas tomorrow, so I do have some help, and I have a meeting to go to tomorrow night, but right now I only want to fall asleep. When I lie down, I am consumed with panic.

I'm sorry for dumping like this, but I'm just having a hard time. Could this be withdrawal after such a relatively short time drinking (large amounts of alcohol, though)?
