I was EXHAUSTED at first. I was very sick when I quit; now, 405 days in, fatigue is still my number one concern as I live a very full life.

At the start, I took huge advantage of naps.

Taking care of yourself- learning to listen to what your body needs now that you are not putting alcohol in it is critical.

Good luck.
