Good morning and very late goodnight to you, dear Red

I am super proud that you and your man were both sober through the dinner with his dad!!! What a huge win! ❤️

As for still feeling exhausted at 11 days, I was the same. Dee said earlier in another thread that the last time he got sober, it took a month to be sure he wasn't going to keel over in the street (I am paraphrasing slightly). I was the same way. It was not easy at all. BUT it was worth it. So very worth it.

Be kind to yourselves. Rest when you can, eat healthy food, drink water, and put your face in the sun, even for just a few minutes. And books are magic; they are a lovely way to pass the time and distract yourself when you are not feeling physically fantastic.
