Is it because I'm experiencing the shift back to normalcy from not drinking? I did do a lot of physical labor today so maybe that's why?

Have your blood sugars dropped, have you eaten?
Hope you feel better soon

That keeps happening to me on and off. Sometimes it's a good feeling, sometimes I just feel like my nervous system is overstimulated. I'm just experiencing everything very intensely.

I feel the same sometimes. I chalk it up to the fact I was high and drunk so long, that it became normal. Real sobriety is so different I feel high sometimes. At least theres no hangover

What sucks is that it's times like these that my AV really acts up.

It's like I can't just enjoy life on life's terms.

I believe our experience is subjective . Sometimes when in love for instance things seem brighter and more intence .
As i get older and tend to appreciate the world around me for it's awe inspiring beuty a lot more, i do believe with the path i walk i can acheieve different levels of conciousness , there is freedom and beuty in it simmalar to a high but no downside insofar as i can see .

The body gives us natural highs (as is normal and good), and it can take us off guard when we experience them sober.

Ironically, sometimes it is a trigger for me when I get a huge endorphin rush from working out. I feel so great, and my addictive personality is used to saying, "Let's just up this a notch more" and I think about a cold beer. :-)

Try to enjoy it without picking up!

we used to joke about getting flashbacks from mushrooms if we worked out really hard, but maybe some of the stuff (any drug) does get stored up in organs and/or fat and released if just the right activity happens....

I get like that if I drink lots of coffee...don't know if you did but one possible explanation.

I do drink plenty of caffeine, but this was different, more perceptual/outside of my body/mentally altered.....
