Hi Champ, those feelings of anxiety are common part of recovery for some of us. It is your brain chemistry resetting itself. It takes time for your delicate brain balance to get back to its natural state after being bombarded by alcohol chemicals for so long.

Check out the articles on PAWS (Post Acute Withdrawal Syndrome). There is great info on here and on the internet about PAWS. These symptoms will lessen over time, so sit through it knowing that they can not hurt you, only make you uncomfortable and antsy.

P.A.W.S. | What…Me Sober?

The Condition Many Recovering Addicts And Alcoholics Don't Know About

The freedom from the alcohol on the other side is so worth sitting through the uncomfortableness.

You can do this!!
