Really appreciate this thread!
At just over 6 weeks sober, this is the longest I have not had a drink in over 10 years. I have to say that mostly I feel incredible (compared to how I was feeling before) and my gratitude for my sobriety and this decision outweighs any horrible experiences I've had to endure as a result of my years of alcohol and drug abuse.
That said my symptoms include, and are experienced pretty much every other day are:
Exhaustion for hours at a time, unable and/or unwilling to move
Inexplicable feeling of dread
Anxiety, every thought creates a worry of some kind
Complete lack of motivation or drive to complete even the simplest tasks
Extreme irritability and anger
Rapid cycling mood swings
Disassociation
Derealization
Food cravings
Overall sadness and hopelessness
Clumsiness
Paranoia and disdain for others
This is in contrast to some very good and very wonderful days/moments which I hope to experience more of as the time between today and my last drink grows.
