It's cool outside! And it's Saturday and I'm sober. What a great feeling.
I've been reading more and thinking about post-acute withdrawal syndrome. Also called paws. It's very common, in fact, it's more common to have it than not. That explains some of my exhaustion, bouts of anger, and chronic pain. Also my memory lapses and difficulty concentrating or focusing.
I know it's not the only reason I'm having those symptoms, some of them may have nothing to do with paws. But knowing that those things can be a part of my brain and body taking time to heal helps me a lot. I can find ways to deal with it, and know that if I stay sober, it will pass.
I hope everyone has a wonderful day. I'm going out in the yard!
