Day 6,

Less issues last night, my mind told me that I needed a drink to sleep, but it didn't turn out too bad without one!

6 hours fairly uninterrupted sound sleep, I'm excited now that I may be over the hump and am seriously considering extending my carrot-on-a-stick to two weeks.

Hope everyone is well

Getting good sleep was one of the biggest benefits to me of getting sober, glad you had a good night. 6 days is a great accomplishment.

I'll throw a rotten carrot out there for you on another stick just for the heck of it: All the bad stuff that comes along with drinking? It comes back pretty much right away when you start drinking again. Even if you are sober for months or even years, alcohol doesn't care - you'll be right back to square one pretty much instantly. And the withdrawals and detox get worse and worse every time.

IMHO a lousy sober night's sleep is infinitely better that any drunken sleep.

Six days is a huge accomplishment. Please take a moment to tell yourself that it's a wonderful accomplishment.
