Class of April 2015 Part 3
I had a nightmare last night: I dreamed I had decided to drink even though I knew it was a bad idea. I then realized what I had done and that I broke the promise that I made to myself about not drinking and felt horrible. Woke up from the dream with my heart racing and that horrible feeling of guilt/anxiety that I normally feel when waking up hungover and realizing what I did the night before - it was so scary! It took me a moment to realize that it was just a dream and I hadn't drank.
It's been 7 days or one week for me. Still can't manage to wake myself up earlier than 8AM but I don't need to be at work until 10:00AM so it's okay. I slept much better last night except when I woke up this morning my mouth was dry. Maybe I didn't drink enough water the day before? Hope everyone has a good start to the weekend!

Must be day 33 for me now.
I'm planning to get up at 5am tomorrow morning to make a quick start on a long holiday weekend. Something which would have been impossible and probably illegal just over a month ago.
I'm feeling stalled at present, like I'm waiting for something to happen. I constantly need to be busy but have to calm down before I burn out. All in all though delighted with my situation and sobriety.

Day 2, but feeling great!
I usually crack a beer right when I get home, but instead spent the rest of the day being productive and doing laundry.
Just made myself a (not so healthy- but who doesn't love nachos?) snack and am settling down to read a good book and relax for the night!
Looking forward to hopefully feeling 100% by tomorrow.

Welcome nanab
for your benefiot I'll riterate - this April thread stays together, but it moves to our Newcomer Daily Support forum at the end of the month.
This is to make way for a new Class of May thread here in this forum.
I'll do this in a couple of hours (it's already May here in Oz)

Back to day 1 again - anxieties over employment meant I fell off the wagon the night before last, and kept drinking the following morning.
Feel better now though, the fog's cleared. Looking forward to several months sober now, at the very least having a sober May.

April has been a learning month. It's been a good month. I'm ready for May I'm a, week sober. Seems fitting as I end on month and start another.
The heart palpitations and anxiety are gone. Sleep still isn't perfect, but hoping it is tonight. Feelings are strong, which is to be expected. Mingled in with the sadness is also contentment and joy.
I look forward to moving forward to a new month with all of you.
