Good to hear. Those first few days are so hard, no doubt about it.

11 days is great, and you didn't give in. I know how hard that was! Don't let any thoughts throw you off. One day at a time.

I feel ya 100% my last cold turkey try at sobriety was by far the worst. That being said it was 54 days ago. This will pass just hang on.

Hi BanAlcohol.

I am bumping this thread because I'm curious as to how you are getting on, if that is okay with you of course? I'm currently on day 48, I've still got a few little squiggles I need to work out with health anxiety wise, but I feel I'm on the right track.

our first year sober is often compared to a roller coaster.....ya gotta learn to ride the ride and just not pick up and create, one day after the next, a sober life for yourself!

Want to strongly apologise for not posting here for ages, I have been to the ER like 40 times since, constant panic attacks, I am having better days but to be honest with you all I am not in a good way.

My health is fine physically and I have even had a CT scan of my brain as I have been experiencing confusion and like I am living in a dream world for about 3 weeks now, very hard to explain.

3 months sober on Monday, I won't touch alcohol again, I just don't know why I feel the way I do but I have been told it can take up to a year for the brain and body to recover.

Doctors think I have dissociation / mental breakdown

I hope you are all well and sorry, honestly for not being here for ages
