I'm glad you're doing well, but no it's not hype.
I was a beer drinker too.
Each withdrawal I had over the years was different - sometimes I had no ill effects at all, sometimes mild effects and sometimes I stayed in bed for days.
My last detox nearly killed me.
You've been very lucky I think
Just don't fall for the lie I did when I felt great and think 'well that was easy...maybe I don't really have a problem at all'...
