What are your side affects from quitting?
 

I'm on day 3!!! :Dance7:

Well, I noticed that I'm tired a lot. And, my tummy hurts - not sure if that's because of withdrawals or because I've been eating a lot of candy instead of drinking...

What side affects did you notice???

If you go to the Alcoholism forum next door, I think there is a sticky called Quitting, what to expect. Something like that. I'll grab the link for you.
Welcome and good luck!

healthy productive future.

:hug:...Keep in focus and Good for you!

Well after 20 months sober and having completed the steps the side effects for me has been miraculous!!!!

My obsession/need for alcohol has been lifted, I am happy, I am no longer a slave to alcohol, I am able to live life on lifes terms sober.

Every thing that drinking used to give me when I first started I now have sober, and being sober has given me far more then anything drinking ever gave me.

My health is good, I like the guy I see in the mirror every morning, I am useful to my family and to others, people ask me for help and advice.

I no longer drive constantly watching for the cops in my rear view!!!

When I have problems arise I am able to face them head on and do something about them.

I have quit running from life and now live life!

Read the link Rown provided for the early days, I have a post in there.

Thanks everyone for your support!!! I went to the link you gave me Rowan and really appreciate it!
