day 5 over into day 6
the physical symptoms continue and they get worse in the afternoon. wheni think about it, i really haven't craved a drink yet. i'm just trying to get thru the physical stuff. i feel stronger every day yet i know my journey has just begun. i find it almost amusing that this is my horoscope for today:
You are standing on the threshold of a new phase in your life and you may be feeling a combination of excitement and fear. You know that you can no longer rely on your old ways of doing things. It's time to leave your ingrained habits behind and try something new. You'll feel better about yourself as you step away from the familiar and into the unknown. By Rick LevineFriday, October 3, 2008

rachel, Congrats on your success! The withdrawels are difficult and get worse everytime we put ourselves through it. What helps me not drink today is that I still remember my last withdrawel. I hope I never forget it. Best wishes on your day 6. One minute at a time was how I had to take it in the beginning. If I can do it You can too!
Hold on tight and keep posting. I think posting as much as you want can be great therapy, whatever it takes to not drink now. lol
