Will it feel as bad tomorrow?

This, the evening of my second day. Curse or blessing, I had to go to work today.
I can answer the question I posed yesterday, "Will it feel as bad tomorrow?" The answer, for me at least, is no. The anxiety was 1/10th that, the clammy sticky palms about 1/2. Only the general weakness remained, if not worsened. There were new 'symptoms' in that I was dizzy and lightheaded most of the day, as well as having a tightness/stiffness in my neck and shoulders; the latter I should probably attribute to tossing and turning for 6 of the eight hours I almost slept.
On my way home from work, and as a reflex action, I wondered which store I would choose today to buy my 12-pack. The thought no sooner surfaced in my consience than I realized I wouldn't be doing that today. I don't have to do that today.
I know things could get much worse before they get better -- I've done the research -- but for now, I'm remaining very strong in will, stronger in body.
Hopefully I'll remain one of the lucky ones.
The first miles on the wagon ain't a joyride but it beats a drunken crawl through the sewer.
Looking forward to day three.

Hi Treb, good to hear you did well under the circumstances. The still neck and shoulders is from stressing yesterday, same thing happened to me. Take some advil, it will help a lot.
Keep on going dude, dont stop before the miracle happens
Your doing great, hang in there!
