Re: New day, everyday (log)

Man you sound just like me. Every day except 1 in the passed two years I was drunk. I would too start not too long after I come home from work and finish at 1am or so. I was to the point where I needed more then just beer, so I would mix coke and vodka. I would kill a large bottle of Vodka in about 3-4 days. Every morning I would drag my ass out of bed feeling like crap and just wanting to stay in bed all day until it was time to drink some more. Nobody knew how bad I was either, until I told my girlfriend. I was so exhausted all the time, my stomach usually got upset after I ate something, I was starting to become anti social, and not perfroming as well in bed as I should. I just got tired of being sick and tired all the time so I said to hell with this.
I just quit drinking six days ago and I can feel the changes already. My energy has skyrocketed , even after the 1st day. Its not easy, you will have urges, but you just got to tell yourself your better off without it. If that doesnt work then go to AA and be amungst people that you can relate to and share stories with. I would share mine, but my last 2 years have been a complete blur. I hope you did go to bed sober tonight, you will feel much better tomorrow.
