3 days in
Hi everyone, my name is Matt . Well today is my 3rd day of being sober. I am still feeling sick and cant sleep but it is better to be exhausted all day then waking up hungover and Depressed about my drinking. I can honestly say I almost lost everything that is most important to me. I have to do this and I will do this. I feel stronger now than I have been in a long time. I am glad I have found this site and already have read so many positive and helpful things. Good luck to everyone.

It's so important to have support and I know you'll find lots of it here - it sure helped me turn things around! Keep reading and posting - you can do this!

Welcome to SR, Matt you'll find that there are many people here who have been where you are and are very willing to share their experiences and help and advise. It's been an invaluable source of support for me and I hope you find all that I have here.
Congratulations for making this decision and for your three days. It does get easier as time goes on and after a short while you will feel so many benefits. It is very, very worth it. Keep going, stay strong, and remember that everyone here will be there for you if you need us.
Wishing you all the best on your sober journey.

Thanks all. It was definitely a better night as I was able to finally get some rest. I feel very strong about being able to stay sober and to get my life back on track and to feel healthy again. Thanks all of you for the support It really does help. I am going to my first meeting today or tomorrow for sure hopefully it helps as well. Thanks again.

hi Matt,
Everyone here knows exactly what you are going through. I noticed your 1st post was on Day 3....the worst day for many...the 3rd day with no sleep really is the 'hump' to get over. Sounds like you are feeling better now. Welcome to the site!
