Star,
Getting through the first clean week was physically/mentally painful.
Then, as the booze fully left my system, my brain started to feel like it was off kilter.
It was a nonstop crave.
I told myself I felt better, but denying myself booze during this...better...feeling caused me hellish anxiety.
I wasn't feeling good, I was stressing out. I was going crazy from a lack of booze.
Each relapse worsened the suffering.
Folks end up insane if they can't figure out a way to stop.
Thanks.
