Sudden Shakes & Sadness
I had my last drink on Tues morning ( UK, GMT time) but I managed to get through the rest of the day, just about. Then Weds and Thurs I actually had a really good time, just catching up with work and generally being an all-round pleasant person; actually having conversations with my mum, doing housework and finally starting to feel confident again.
But then I woke up today (Fri) and was just overcome with sadness and the obligatory shakes. I actually cried a few tears for no apparent reason. I was toiling with the idea of booze all morning, until I finally made up my mind and caved in. When I walked into the local corner shop my shakes intensified so much I could barely hand money over to the shop keeper.
I guess with it being Friday, i.e. my 'weekend trigger' day, set it off. But I've never experienced it so suddenly like this before.
