4th Day and goin strong!!!

Today is my fourth day of not drinking!!!! I'm feeling pretty good!!! I have been having a problem with no energy and insomnia. Last night (or evening), I laid on the couch at 5:30pm, got up this morning at 3:30. Slept pretty good other then waking up a few times to roll over and once because I was dripping in sweat, but feel back to sleep. When I got up this morning, there was not that "heavy chest" feeling and I felt like I got a pretty good nights rest. Better then I have had in months!!! We will see what tonight brings as I move on to day 5.

Still having in issue with the shakes, usually when Im active and trying to do something using my hands. If I'm still, watching tv or something, I don't shake, and I don't shake while typing. I'm sure this will improve with time.

Here is to <holds up class of coke> everyone just starting their sobriety and to those that have been sober!!!!!!

oh, and no urge to drink!!!!

Glad to hear it! I'm on day four too. Feeling pretty crappy, but I know it will get better if I don't drink, and I'm feeling optimistic about that.

Awesome work - the sweats and shakes shouldnt last too much longer Sometimes if I have too much caffeine I get a bit shaky - just letting you know if it continues, it may be more to do with that than DT's.

Glad you didn't drink. Last night was rough for me. Lonely in new place. It helped to focus on what I would lose if I drink.
