Day 4 for FG

Maybe 3 hours sleep last night, woke up in a cold sweat twice. Really tired, headachy. I'm ok. I want to feel better. I want to get more done, but I'm taking it slow.

I choose not to drink today.

I am sorry to hear that, foolsgold66. I am on day 5 of sobriety myself and haven't been sleeping well either. When I was actively drinking, I would always wake up a few hours after passing out and would be sweating and anxious. I would rarely get back to sleep after that. I was hoping sober sleep would be better. Hopefully in time.... Congratulations on your 4 days of sobriety. Hearing determination like yours helps me make the decision not to drink today as well. Good luck.

Hang in there In a very short time, you'll both soon be feeling LOADS better. You're almost over the physical stuff - don't give in and have to go through it all again

Hopefully in another day or two, you will feel better.

Congratulations on Day 4.

I don't even know what normal is.... A couple more days is what it took me to feel decent last time, after I had gotten two full nights sleep in a row. I'm hoping to score that this weekend. Hang in, exhausted is better than dead.

Thanks Dave! I exercised pretty hard today. I rolled up a hose in 100 degree heat. No I did a little more really. Friday night and I don't feel great but the beast is quiet. I did nothing I have to apologize for today, so I'm calling day 4 a success.

Great job FG. I also found Day 4 a bit physically difficult. Welcome to Day 5.
