hello friends.
so I'm at day 34. I've been through a lot in the last month. i was having a terrible time trying to sleep. thought it may have been alcohol withdrawals but it seems more serious. i was having sleep dread. i was stressing about whether i would be able to fall asleep. and that kept me awake. i don't know a better definition of irony.
So my doctor has started me on a drug called Trazodone. has anyone had any experience with this med?
Its an antidepressant but it can be used for insomnia too.
i don't like it. but I've been able to sleep. weird dreams. i digress.
So no beer for 34 days!
feels so good. funny thing is with trazodone I'm not supposed to drink. leads to a bad reaction.
so i can't say for sure if its the fear of that thats kept me sober.
still, it feels so good to have over a month sober. I'm rediscovering so many things - the joy of talking to my 4 year old son, early morning walks, and even my job!
will keep trucking for now.
wish all of you the very best
