Hi, Fizz!
I found your post very inspirational - if only I could have your determination! I'm on Day 1 again and Easter is approaching with all its liquid temptations (being an Eastern Orthodox, I'll be celebrating Easter Day on April 19), but reading what you were so kind to share got me thinking to give sobriety another go. Although I live pretty close to Mother Russia, I'm not a vodka man - I drink wine (industrially, in terms of quantity), which usually elevates your BP. I also medicate with Diazepam (2 tablets of 10mg every 10 or 12 hours during Days 1 and 2), and withdrawals are beginning to pi$$ me off with their increasing severity. How did you pull it through? 'Coz for me, sheer willpower and benzos don't seem to do the trick just yet. Congratulations on your sober year and Happy Easter to you and your family!
