Day 7
Ok, I've made it to Day 7. I can't tell you how long it's been since I've been able to say that....
so far all is pretty good. the headaches seem to have mostly gone and my sleeping patterns have seemingly gotten fairly normal (still some crazy dreams). One of my favorite things about this peak into sobriety has been sitting in bed with my wife and watching tv at night. I used to find lots of excuses to hang out downstairs so that I could continue my nightly binge ritual. Another good result of the last week is I've quickly dropped 5 pounds (who knew how many wasted calories I was putting into my body).
Don't get me wrong, it's not going perfectly...I still have daily cravings that I have to just say "no," to. Hopefully I can keep that up. The second weekend is coming up and I hope I can stay strong.
SR has really been helpful thus far and I plan to continue posting and responding.
cheers.
