Day 6: Annoying eye twitches and keeping on the path
Soon it will be a week without any alcohol, which to some may not seem like a lot while to others it may seem like an eternity.
The eye twitches, which I recently discovered were an alcohol withdrawal symptom, were as bad as ever yesterday. It was certainly an annoyance and a challenge, but I told myself that drinking would have even worse consequences.
I went to try and visit an old friend who has been sober nearly two years now. Unfortunately, she wasn't at her work so I did not get to sit down and talk to her yet. We have a lot in common professionally and drinking-wise so I think it would be helpful to reach out to her.
I know that I will need a support group to do this as it is not something to do alone.
