Just an update....
Today is Day 8, detox is over, anxiety is almost gone (with a bunch of other meds they ar giving me).
But the cravings are awful
My husband and dad have cleared the house of all possible alcohol and are with me on the wagon (my dad was never a problem drinker but my husband is).
I guess it's healthy and good for me, but in my mind I'm planning the next relapse which is impossible as they are watching me so closely.
How sick is that - just finished detox and planning the next drink??
Please tell me it gets better with time... from my previous experience (2.5 years sober) I kinda remember that initially it was really tough, but now I feel like a prisoner in my own mind....
