Two Weeks Today

This is the most sober I have been several years. Anxiety is still an issue in the first half of the day, but gets better as the day goes on. Physically, well, u can never have too much sleep! But I am getting there. I like sober me. Thanks for all the support!!

Sticking to my plan; getting more involved in AA; appreciating being sober; and playing the tape forward — knowing that relapsing will not go well, and lots of suffering trying to get sober again.

Yay you!

That's fantastic! Good work, you! I understand the post-alcohol anxiety because I get that too. I've been working on different ways to handle that. But, I'm not too far ahead of you (I'm in week three sober), and at least for me, the anxiety stuff is slowly getting better. Sleep is better too, which can't hurt. And the experienced ones on this site keep telling me that it just gets better from here, so let's keep on going! Best, Grateful

2 weeks is fabulous, Horn, and sleep is an excellent healer. I have issues with anxiety also but they've gotten more managable as my sober time has increased. Keep up the wonderful work--I play the tape forward too and that is very helpful to me.

Two weeks is awesome Horn, sounds like you are listening to what your body needs right now as well. Sobriety will keep getting better, and better.

Congrats on 2 weeks Horn! I had terrible anxiety and depression. Today, I'm 69 days sober and I can tell you my anxiety has dropped significantly. Stay the course.
