Congrats on 4 days! I drank a bottle of wine (occasionally more) every night for years. My withdrawal was not acute or severe, but unable to sleep, no appetite, some stress, some sweating on and off. That all lasted a week or so.
How are you feeling?

Thank you for the replies. .. its the weirdest thing, i have my anxiety on and off but i feel so good... when i was drinking i wouldnt eat, couldnt sleep and always felt on edge and frustrated. Now i have been sleeping and waking up not gagging while trying to make the kids breakfast. I feel happy now and i didnt think it was possible. Congrats to everyone on sr

Keep up the good work, no need to ever wake I gagging or with a hangover ever again. I am glad your at day five, your well on your way. I do know though I had many attempts fail between five and twelve days so watch out, your mind my try to talk you into thinking it's okay too drink again.
The anxiety can be killer but it does calm, takes a while though unfortunately.
