Hello all,

So i finally made it 7 days. I was at 5 days last weekend when I slipped on the weekend. 7 days is extremely long for me, but I've progressively made it to 3 days, then 5 and now 7. Just need to keep pushing. Anxiety is still there. The thing I hate the most is the fluctuating HR. Just walking around will make my HR jump. Sucks but I'm just breathing thru it and trying to convince myself it's just anxiety. Anyway, I made it 7 days. Yay

Congratulations on a week. That's a big accomplishment. I remember when I couldn't make it seven hours.
Could be time to go see the doctor now that you've got some sober time.
The anxiety will fade. Just think of starting over from zero days and how bad it would be then.

Take it easy. Things will improve. You've come a long way. Don't forget that. And you never have to go back.
Keep it up and best to you.

Congrats on your week. I hope you'll consider seeing someone about that HR if it continues to be a concern for you

Hello, I'm on 7 days today. I still don't feel right, but the acute withdrawals are over and I feel a lot better than I did full of toxic drink. You'll be ok 🙂

Sc,

The fluttery heart is one of so many issues caused by being a drunk.

It is pure addiction that keeps folks damaging their bodies and minds.

Getting clean hurts and that is why so many never make it out.

Folks give up and let their health dwindle.

Suffering through is how I do it.

I craved last night around 625 PM. By 630, I had forgotten about it.

When the crave hits, drinking seems like the right choice.

But, waking up at 4 am with no hangover and feeling great is the reward for having the self discipline to embrace sobriety.

Some folks say they never crave after a while. I still do, but sr taught me what to do to get through.

I was missing out on real life being a drunk. I am not going to miss another moment.

Thanks.
