Hi OldSoul,

I am 59, so we are very close in age! I had long periods of sobriety (years) but relapsed four years ago, and have been sober for almost 10 months. I, too, am somewhat of a loner, but I have my dogs to keep me company, too!

Your symptoms are the same that I experienced in the beginning. Give it time...you will feel better when your body gets more adjusted. If you are like me, my body had a lot of repair to do. And I have found it takes a lot longer now that I am older. Good thing we quit when we did....it only gets worse, and at an accelerated rate because of our age.

Keep reading and posting on SR. This site is helping me save my own life. Elizabeth
