Morning all,
Thanks for the responses it's good to know we are not alone out here. I didn't take anything and fell asleep eventually although fitfully and with the weridest dreams I feel quite disturbed this morning. At least it is a decent day and I haven't got a hangvoer.

Day 5. I can see the sun rising from where I am sitting and I see that as a positive sign of a bright future.

Hope you all have a good day/night.
RALx

I'm also trying to eat better and lose a few pounds.

There are SO many calories in beer so cutting that is a great start!

You're on the right road TB - keep the faith stay sober - make that the priority and everything else will fall in place behind that

Good morning everyone. Day 2. It’s going to be a great day not to drink. We can all do this together. I’m going to check in again later today instead of picking up a drink.

Regarding sleep, I know we are all different but for me it improved a lot by week two. The first 4-5 nights were super restless. By week two I could get 4-5 hours uninterrupted then a bit restless in the morning hours. Now I'm getting seven solid hours. Still can't sleep in but who can? 😂

I actually find I have more energy than I use now, which is a nice change but I still need to figure out where to direct it so I'm not so charged and anxious.

I think that's where a bit of exercise helps. And with the warmer weather and longer days coming it might be easier to go for evening walks, or anytime of the day. s xx

Same here i was 38 days sober and blew it on Saturday so day 2 it is now.

Actually feeling not too bad other than guilt.

This day 2 is a lot easier than last one although i did have some potential health worries on my last day 2.

The weight question is interesting as i have actually put weight on when i stopped in January sugar cravings to blame for that though!

I know that guilt....but....I replaced mine with gratitude.
Every day sober was a miracle. I was a miracle.
As are all of you. s ❤️

Hi Jim, welcome back
Welcome to all newcomers too.
Had a good day but healthy eating intentions descended into cream cakes, chocolate, curry and rice and then crisps and haribo.
least I'm sober for which I am grateful.
