Day 8, feeling great!
 
I am so lucky. While I didn’t drink often, it was always on my mind when my next binge would be. I told myself that I had to stay sober for 4 months (until April) but truth is I don’t want to binge again and black out, I can’t handle the anxiety of not knowing what I did.
Since I didn’t drink often, I didn’t have any withdrawal or detox symptoms, other than exhaustion after my last binge.
Also I am starving but that could be related to binge eating my way through the holidays (I have no family in my city so it was lonely). I actually worked Christmas and Boxing Day (which was great...no drinking allowed). But I didn’t work New Years and I was feeling alone and drank :(.

Well done on day 8 :)

Yeah for a lot of years i would say if only i hadn't had that last drink...but it was actually the first drink that started the madness.

No alcohol. No first drink. No binge. No blackouts :)
