Day Two over and onto the next!
Took a while and a few attempts but made it so far. Still shaking a little and feel like I have the flu with ongoing head-ache which I assume is normal? Blessings to all of you that have helped me so far..

Oh God, I've been there so many times, may I never be there again. I feel for you and my hat's off to you for fighting the good fight. Don't hesitate to seek medical and/or other professional help if you need to. Detox is a real bitch and dangerous. Hang on and go on. You can do this, and this becomes wonderful.

Congratulations, first of all. Initially, you will miss the booze. I'm still missing it terribly at Day 62, but last night as I was standing in my kitchen, moseying about, I got this fleeting sense of freedom. I'd usually be drunk off my ass at that time of the evening but there I was, in complete control of myself. I felt young and full of potential, as I am. It quickly passed and I was back in my same old self, but I'm starting to get indescribable feelings of release...You must be patient and stay vigilant.

Curious
I like all the signatures, that everyone uses. Makes me smile.
I wonder, at times, why they are chosen. Everyone is
Anyone care to share?
I'll start:
I chosed mine because, I'm on a quest, can't find all the pieces yet, that makes this big, wonderful, world go round.
Stay strong.

i hope that you will seek medical attention if it becomes necessary.
Please hang on to the hope that it does get better one day at a time.
Maybe attending meetings will help to keep the focus on moving forward?

Thanks all...... my wife has been the help with all of this and really provided strength and encouragement and tells me it is nice to have me back! I have an appointment next week to see a addiction shrink, lucky enough to have good company insurance.... I am not adverse to AA but at the moment I feel strong enough but shoudl that change I will go just to see what it is all about.

Ditto that to Seeking Professional Medical Help if You Get Worse. Welcome and Keep it Up!! I'm 30 days ahead of you. I am not a medical Dr. But when drying out the last time a good multivitamin, lots of low sodium V8 and a b-complex (specifically thiamine) seemed to help. Will this to be the Last Time (I think this is the third time for my last time making this the last last last time). It will get better. Everyone I've encountered here is great for general support as well as specific advice. Also; just lurking and reading one can learn some much.........

Now on day five and enjoyed the day outside doing projects and repairing my mower which I smashed whilst loaded (on my property) ... oh the irony..... more of the same please. Nice to read again... wtf was I doing with myself before....The odd craving here and there but so far not too bad... hopefully that snake that was writhing in me will be something that I can control with a steady hand and will power... ricky ticky tavee....
