Hey Maples,
You sound like you're just where you should be on day 6 -- mood-swinging, dealing w/ cravings, stressing over everything big & small, not using one minute at a time, and talking to other alcoholics to help you get through those minutes!
I'm so glad you're continuing to push yourself forward! It WILL get better. One thing I've seen already is the improvement in the quality of my relationships, even though my first instinct is still to isolate.
Hugs!!!
