Smile One Week!

Yay! One week in the bag!

I know there's a few others out there that share this day with me. Firestorm, you around? How about Jade19? Anyone else?

I'm eating better, haven't had any panic/anxiety in over 30 hours, and the only major symptom I now have is sleep trouble: trouble falling asleep, staying asleep, waking up in a sheen of cold sweat, etc. I hear that stuff can last for months.... but I'll take it!

Thank you so much everyone from SR! You've been amazing, and have reassured me when I worried most.

Onward to the next week! The summer is looking up

Good for you!

And, yes, sleep problems seem to be part of the recovery process. I'm so glad you're doing well!

Congrats Waterfountain! Awesome!

By the way, Carol moved the "Class of June" thread to "Newcomers Daily Support" area. It seems like some people can't find us anymore. Hope to see you over there!

Congratulations on your 1 week. And yes indeed you should be proud of yourself.
Sleep is a problem but that will pass in time. Again Congratulations!!!

Thank you very much for the congrats folks! It is very encouraging - I certainly appreciate it
I'm still hoping to see some other one-weekers show up though....

Thanks for the heads-up Cham, I'll head over soon!

Angelina, your avatar melts my heart =^.^=

Take care for now folks; best wishes!

Yep, I'm here and am glad you've made a week!!!

That's great news and I have a week also, but it was close today. Sometimes I get goofy even during a good day like today, I just can't figure this out. Well, while talking with a friend on the phone tonight, I was able to get past the cravings and check in here.

On the sleep issue, have you gotten a AA Big Book? I'm just curious, a guy at a meeting gave me one and it puts me to sleep each time I try to read it, lol. Might be worth a try, and if nothing else, the descriptions of alcoholism are great info.

Chamabama is correct.....
when a thread reaches 500 posts
we do move it into the Daily Support Forum.
I also linked on both the old and new threads
so everyone could easily find them.

Here is the link to Part 2
