You're doing great. You're rewiring (literally) your mind and body into something and it takes time. My drinking pattern approximated yours; and it took a couple months to feel good. A general physical, with complete honesty to your doctor concerning your drinking would be a great way to go. Welcome to the journey. From personal experience exercise and good eating habbits help alot. Keep rockin' it out; the first couple months can be a little sureal. Read the stikies as suggested above and relax try not to obssess; if you do laugh it off, it's part of the game.
