Welcome.....
It took me about 2 months to feel back in balance mentally and physically.
I had been drinking for many years tho and I was 53 so I did not expect quick healing.
I was doing positive things..eating healthy...drinking plenty of water..walking often... attending AA daily. I do think all those helped with the cravings....
Please do keep posting....sobreity is just such a wonderful way to live
give your self every chance to enjoy your journey....

Glad to see you here isaacovation, & congratulations on your 38 days. We understand what you're going through.
I was a lifelong drinker & it took about 3 mos. for the clouds to lift. I didn't have a very good attitude when I first stopped - was filled with resentment. I also wasn't under a dr's care, which would've helped. The negative feelings faded away, though - and slowly I felt myself come out into the sunshine. It still gets a little better each day.
Reading other's stories & experiences really calmed me down & gave me hope. Maybe being here will help you feel less anxious. Congratulations on wanting a better life - you can do this.

For me, working a program has really helped as well.
