Thanks everyone! I appreciate all the advice and support here. Yes, I've been working on overcoming my addiction to alcohol for a long time. I have had long streaks of sobriety, and I have tried many things over the years, as I'm sure many of you can relate. This is the closest I have felt to "beating" it, so honestly this relapse was very difficult for me. I haven't been that sick in a long time.
Good news, I am now feeling a bit better, my voice is finally coming back, and we will be leaving soon to pick up my family from the airport! We have missed them a lot, so looking forward to seeing them!
I will not drink today. I am a nondrinker. That's my mantra...no mater what!
Thanks again all.
