Hi BritGirl -
Congrats on getting sober & staying sober 27 days!
Interestingly, for me each 'anniversary' (1 day, 7 days, 14 days, 1 month, 2, months, 3 months) came with it's own 'leveling' up challenge that required new learnings and developing new skills to get through. Some shifts were larger than others.
Good news: after each 'challenge' I got a renewed sense of well being on the other side, similar to getting sober. I've noticed that most people have a cycle of some sort. Mine have a tendency to sneak up out of the blue, and when they do, focusing on day - by - day has been very helpful.
Also, looking back, it took my body about 5 weeks to go through acute detox - bloating, eyes, etc. Post acute detox, I started to recognize "Me"when I looked in the mirror & it renewed my motivation to get "Me" fully back.
You can do this!
