Day 90 ....Tired but Grateful
Hello All, Day 90 and still suffering from bouts of exhaustion. Mental fog. Many days I have few accomplishments to show....except staying sober. But I'm actually thankful for the discomfort. Yes, the discomfort reminds me....I'm on the way to recovery. I'm alive. It's truly a miracle. Three months on.....I realize this has been one of the longest summers of my life....for two reasons: one, the hours of struggling to stay sober are sometimes long and lonely...but on the plus side, I simply have more time...not spending a couple of hours every afternoon sleeping off the wine only to wake and drink some more. I love having more time! Summers in my part of the world are short to begin with.....so this is a bonus. Thanks for reading. :
Congratulations, kaffeeklatsch!
Keep up the great work. I started to feel much better after my 90 days. Brain fog lifted a bit and I finally got into a regular sleeping pattern.
Doesn't it feel great not to think of alcohol 24/7?

Kaffe,
That is a big big deal.
Congrats!
90 days sober is when I started to really realize the brain damage I caused myself w booze.
I began to worry I was permanently jacked up.
That fear motivated me to not relapse. I decided I didn't have another relapse,in me.
From what I learned, eventually the craziness we feel from hangovers never goes away. Eventually, we just stay crazy.
That is why I stopped forever. I don't want to be a wack job w tons of physical, booze induced, ailments.
This place reminded me that booze will eventually drive us medically, Dr. diagnosed.....insane
I don't want that.
Thanks.

Well done on day 90. That is fantastic.
I hope I can get there too!
I am not feeling good either, don't know how much is down to alcohol.....but I completely agree that in a way the fact that this has been so difficult highlights why I can never do this to myself again. So thats something!
Best wishes to you.
