a fallen man

hey man. just checkin' on you. we both started monday and i know you made it to tuesday morning. hope all is well.

i've had a total of 1 1/2 hours sleep the last two nights and don't feel sleepy right now. didn't have too many cravings on monday night as i was still toxic from the weekend.

felt weak last night and prolly woulda slipped if there had been any in the casa but i poured it all out on monday.

the days aren't too bad as work keeps me busy. but it's the evenings that bring the urge. thanks to this forum when i get a pang for my vodka i come here and get reassurance.

hope you're still with us wombat. and if you're readin' this just holla. thanks to everyone.

I am still here man--I gotta tell you: Today was my best day yet.
I don't know what it was about last night, but Tuesday I had done some laundry and washed the bedding. We went to Costco and bought new pillows. I washed my pajamas, and took a shower right before I got into bed to read. I didn't fall asleep very easily, but eventually was able to doze off, I think from just the pure mental/physical exhaustion of getting off this junk, and concentrating so hard on staying off. I slept in kind of late, but got up--brewed some tea and hit the backyard for some hardcore frisbee with my dog.
Stay tough Fallen. Send me a PM if you ever need to. I've been checking in pretty frequently as I am at home all day and evening. We can do this. Day 4 is just this evening away.

I with you guys, today will be day 5. I went to my first AA meeting and that really helped. I am going to my 2nd meeting tonight. It's tough but stay positive.
