1.5 weeks sober
Today is the first Monday I can remember in a long time waking up and feeling good. No residual hangover and I slept like a baby last night. And to think, 10 days ago I was this close to checking into a hospital to detox. Wasn't easy but I toughed it out. But I suppose staying sober from here on out is the REAL hard part. I don't miss it though. In fact, I even went to a bar Saturday night for dinner with my brother and wasn't even tempted. Had 2 cokes. Don't slip Pete!

Keep it up Pete. I remember the Mondau hangover. I usually drank so much on the Saturday my hangover would last in ot Sunday night, leaving my feeling incredibly tired and drained on Monday. I've only been sober two days but I can relate.

No joke boxguy ... For me, as a hard drinker from 18 till my mid 30s now, the hangovers usually lasted a few days, sometimes up until Wednesday. Not fun. Especially when I usually would be throwing back a few during sunday football.

Good news Pete. You have gone through the hardest part. I was where you are only two months ago. The first 4 weeks were full of suffering. I am in a much better place today. Happy Sober New Year.
