Glad you made it through Dawnie and glad you have support from your bf. Just remember next time you crave like that. Want it for you first, before you can really start moving beyond addiction and out of it's shadow you have to want it for you.

Thank you

Fandy

just remember how much better you feel each morning...and how great it is not to wake up feeling ill or anxious.

congrats on Day 6.

Thank you fandy , I dunno why I'm feelin stressy tho but I am tired a lot recently

Fandy

i think that's pretty normal as the alcohol leaves your body, give it a few more days to even out.

...try to eat well and drink lots of fluids like water, juice, seltzer...and if you want the cookie, have it. booze contains lots of sugar that your body may be missing right now. if you're extra tired, get the sleep you need too. I think you are doing great.

(feel free to join us on the gratitude threads, it helps me immensely too).
