On day 3 and always a tough night for me. Had a great day and then 5:00 hit and I became irrational grump of the year. Anxiety level is high. Nothing in the house to drink except some nasty blackberry wine I got as a gift 5 years ago so no risk there, but boy am I fighting it right now. Just cravings. I haven't really had any other withdrawal symptoms except sleep issues. Trying to breathe my way through it and hope it won't be as bad tomorrow night.

Do you have a support network? Meetings you can attend (if you are open to that)? Remember to play the tape to the end, as they say. It will pass! (hugs)

I hope tomorrow is better for you.

I'm glad that you're getting through this and I know that it will get easier for you.

MrsSensitive

Support I'm finding here. Posted so I wouldn't obsess about it. Meetings - not really sure that is my thing. I'm not a "group" person. More of a homebody. Had a counsellor until our insurance went away. Have insurance again so may need to call her to get back on her docket. I know it will be better in the morning and I felt so darn good when I got up today. I hoped I would breeze through it this time. Sigh......

Three days is awesome! But early sobriety is a B!^(# .

Roll with it. It gets better.

I'd still dump the wine out.

Raider

Good luck. Three days is awesome. You have to start somewhere!

MrsSensitive

Dinner and then a long walk with the family and dogs. Feeling much better!

That's great for your 3 days! Changing your mind with the walk was a wonderful idea. I usually have a really solid meal. It calms me.

Aarryckha

Glad you're feeling better!

MrsSensitive

I had a really solid meal before the walk. Think it was a combo of influences that calmed me!
