Workingdrunk,
I have been following your thread, and am delighted to hear that you made it through last night. I think that I know exactly what you mean about how you are feeling....just making the decision and knowing I could carry it out even for that first night gave me so much hope the next day. It was a big difference from the "impending doom", "ashamed of myself" feelings that I had while drinking. Living in the solution instead of living in the problem in nothing but positive energy. Stay strong, and, yes, exercise will do wonders - lets out some of that pent up mental energy and stress. Forge ahead!
