Hi Berty, well done, keep it up, I'm on day 9 myself and the sleeping is a problem too!!, feel wrecked in mornings which makes going to work hard, my body might be tired but the mind not. I have been here before so know it does get better. I suffer from PAWS (post alcohol withdrawal syndrome) which is a terrible infliction, we just have to be patient, abstain and live clean with good diet and exercise, rest and higher power if you into that. At the end of the day the brain is healing and it takes time, I have cravings also but I ride them out as I know they will go in a little time. I also take thiamine and multi B vitamin to help the brain recover. Good luck and keep posting on your progress. Rgds, carlingford.
