Of course feeling bad is a major trigger. This morning I awakened and the first thought was "I feel unbelievably weird; how I am going to get through the day?"

Perhaps others can identify with what I am saying here. Thank you for listening.

Hi Mel
Do you never feel good since you stopped drinking? Or do you never feel good full stop?
I identify with the feeling of discomfort since I stopped drinking- I don't 'reward' myself with a drink after a good day or rotten day or average day and it makes me uncomfortable BUT drinking was murder too- uncomfortable waiting for the first drink, the waiter is too slow bringing an order, the panic when you don't have enough left. Not comfortable.
What is your experience?
