Hi

I couldn't have described it better, FK & Wolfie. The uninspired , fatigue, depression-like sleep has definitely been part of my journey. I can sleep long periods, take naps, and still be tired later. It is crazy.

As many of us have similar symptoms, I guess it is just mental-chemistry-dependency adjustment.. or something ? You can tell I know nothing about the medical field

On my last spell of sobriety, I remember a long period, where I got sober and expected big improvements to immediately come along. I pictured that drinking was the cause and, and if I stopped that, life would magically be great.
In many ways, life got harder. I had to confront things and process painful situations without an off switch. I didn't even have a drinking social group around me anymore.

This time, I want to enter that phase differently. Hopefully having learned a tiny bit more.

It is the weekend so my Saturday battle is on. I am ready for it. Have a healthy, happy and sober day all.
