Hi, Abby, I can relate to you a great deal. In the beginning I felt overwhelmed, like I was trapped in some horrible space where I was frightened of a sober life and even more frightened I was going to kill myself while drinking at some point.
Are you working a program or have a particular strategy? I found that keeping busy helped. In fact, that first weekend I wrote out a massive list of chores that I couldn't possibly finish just to occupy my mind.
Keep on trying
