Day5 - Anxiety (Shakes)
 
Hi All,

Im getting shaky on day 5. Not because of the physical withdrawal but Im feeling really really anxious, like Im about to lose everything I have. Part of it is the realisation that I can never use again. Im feeling very agitated by this thought. Im also thinking about what Ive lost and what Im letting go of.

Kind of turning into a bad day.

It's not about losing seo - it's about gaining.

I used to dream of a life I could have if I stopped drinking and using - it ended up I got something even better :)

was it scary? you bet...but you're not alone here.
You already know whats behind you - give whats ahead a chance :)

Trust me - it's worth it - none of us would be here if it wasn't

If the shakes get worse or anxiety gets too much, or they concern you in any way please consider seeing a Dr

you can do this :)
