Good for you! What a huge, courageous step you've taken! I've been there, the withdrawals are nothing fun. One thing that truly helped me through those moments of despair was repeatedly telling myself, "I WILL get better, I WILL feel better, I WILL find happiness again, my life WILL be better." And you know what? Today I can say that those things finally feel true. I can remember thinking there is no way I would ever be able to climb out of that hole, what a desperate feeling. I am starting to love myself again, and love my sober life. It was worth every second. You are doing the absolute right thing! In a short while you won't believe how awesome life can really be.
