Day 1 again
I stayed home from work today, as the anxiety and heart palps kept me awake most of the night. I drank before going to bed.
I will not miss the terror in the mornings before dawn, where you can't sleep and feel like crap.
I went to the gym, and worked out really hard about an hour ago. It is the only thing that makes me feel better. I had a healthy lunch, enough water to sink a ship, and feeling okay right now.
I have a lot of concern about not consulting a doctor before quitting. It is repeated often (for good reason) that quitting cold turkey is dangerous.
I don't have any withdrawal symptoms right now, but will keep a close eye on things.
