Thank you for saying that, congratulations on your one month!

.... I am finding my mind / memory is all over the place, I walk into a room but forgotten what for.... and was thinking I might be permanently brain damaged. Im scattered, start doing one task, but then go off on another.. Feeling no energy...

I too have been working through my detox, and I have noticed like you, a bit of shakiness, and heart racing. But it settles down. Sleeping ok, taking a little valium.

Day 3 today. It feels like longer! Today is a day off for me which will be more challenging. But every time it comes into my mind I play a little scene out where I kill my beast and then celebrate that Im free, and think about the good things that are going to come (hopefully a baby, weight loss, more money etc)..

Thanks for your support FeelingGreat, glad there is another Aussie aboard ...33 weeks congratulations...

I did a rough calculation and realised that my drinking was costing me $20 a day, thats $7300 a year. Yay, I'll have that money back now thanks Beast!
