I think you are doing great. I think many people don't realize that people who use alcohol are using it to medicate. you may have been using it to medicate anxiety. I know I do. what you are feeling may have little to do with physical withdrawal from alcohol and more to do with all those feelings that alcohol used to cover up. (I don't know that, and withdrawal symptoms can be very serious). keep going strong. alcoholism is one HUGE piece of anxiety--destructive on so many levels. to beat this will mean a better life.
