Good advice from all. I agree...Day 4 was always my hardest day and the one I usually relapsed on in the past. The mental and physical exhaustion are a normal part of the withdrawal. Your body and brain have ben hurt and need time to heal. I also had huge headaches for about three weeks and was as irritable as a bear woken out of hibernation. Be gentle with your self. Don't try to do too much or get frustrated with the healing process. Kick the AV to the curb . It won't go to the curb, but tell it you aren't buying what it says and slowly but surely, everything will start to get better bit by bit. Support is crucial so keep posting here and read everything you can get your hands on about alcoholism and recovery. I was scared to go to AA but I finally went and found it incredibly helpful. Whatever you do, know that you can ride it out, and you will get through it.
