5 days sober :)
I have finally made it 5 days sober and doing it on my own!! I actually decided to give it up a week from friday but ended up caving this past monday. Have not touched a drop since! YAY!
A problem though... I am feeling some major physical effects from not drinking(withdrawl symptoms?). I have all the sudden felt the urge to vomit, I have started getting headaches, body aches, etc.. Is this pretty normal and how long should I expect this to last? Is there anything I can do to prevent it? This part really sucks. Blaa!
Thanks to everyone on this board, I am addicted!!

Are you aware of PAWS?

Pretty normal for 5 days...
By the way..congrats on 5 days!!
I think it best to have medical care...
A lot depends on how much and how long you've been drinking..
Please read the link Carol posted!
Good luck and keep sharing on your progress..
You have friends here.

There's a thread somewhere in one of the forums called "What to expect...." It's what a lot of us went through when we quit, physically.
As Carol pointed out, A Dr. is your best bet. De-tox from alcohol is more fatal then de-tox from herion, IIRC. And, it's not very fun either....
