I've been reading through your thread and it seems like you are doing a great job! Keep it up! I too suffered through insomnia and then a few nights later was amazed at how great sober sleep was!

Week two starts tomorrow.
I was also mortified about telling my friends about quitting drinking. I still haven't told all of my friends, but I have told all my close family, and closes friends. I fear that many of my acquaintances were drinking buddies only so once I tell them it'll be goodbye. From my experience, people are pretty supportive about quitting drinking and one of my friends even told me "its good you quit, it was like you were punishing yourself". I guess I wasn't hiding my alcoholism as well as I thought I was!
GOOD LUCK!
