Sounds like it's time to get a home group and a sponsor. To surrender.

All the best.

Thanks for the notes. Hate the lingering feeling. A person knows whats coming and man does it stink. My work keeps me from getting too personal but I can honestly say I will be posting. I'm commited this is the last time I have a day one.

Welcome to the forum!!! This is a wonderful tool for anyone in recovery, at any stage. You can change your life around, but it takes work and dedication. Its worth it though, and you will be so relieved to be free of the cycle of addiction you are currently in. Ask questions, learn as much as you can, and never forget how you felt today and why you chose to get sober. Bless you!

I can imagine that you have a bad hangover right now and the shakes. Night shakes are the worst. I remember just feeling like dying when I had the night shakes. I was once like you are now. It goes get better.
You need to find a positive activity to occupy your time. Anything is better than drinking. If you are a religious person, you could try an AA meeting, but I wouldn't recommend it. Just check and post on these forums for a little while and see how you feel. Wish you the best.
