Day 28 already. And it's still going well!
As some of you may have read in my Day 27 thread, I drank a lot of coffee yesterday. And experienced a lot of anxiety. Also, I hardly slept.
The anxiety is gone. Green tea is a great substitute. I am tired though. Hardly any sleep and having experience quite intense anxiety.
Fortunately I can trace that all back to the coffee. So, simple solution. No more coffee. Not for a long time. I'll test if I can handle it again in a few months or so. And will start with half a cup. Not 10, like yesterday.
Since I'm so tired today, I found it difficult to do the things I needed to do. But I still did them. And that's the important part to me. Life is not smooth sailing all the time. When the waves come, you need to be able to handle them and continue living your life.
Other news. I have set a definitive date for getting my blood drawn. It's next Monday. I noticed that I was putting it off. Not out of fear, but lack thereof. I am completely unconcerned about it since I believe everything is fine. So I picked a date and I'm sticking to it. One more thing to cross off my list.
One more positive development. I noticed today that I'm actually looking forward to future events with excitement. Instead of the dread I used to feel when I was drinking. "Oh God, I have to do that and I will be hung over."
I'm even looking forward to waking up tomorrow with excitement and I don't have anything planned yet! Just the thought of waking up fresh on a new day is wonderful to me.
Wishing you all a wonderful day!
