Day 16!
I made it past the 2 week mark and feel good today!
Last night I slept non-stop for 7 hours. Something I have not done before in years (many years). My mind is so clear it is scary!
I did have a tough Saturday late afternoon. I was really getting testy. I was just angry but not at anyone in particular. I think it was because I wanted to have a drink but knew I couldn't.
Best wishes to all of you where ever you are in your sober journey.

You are doing well, Martin; congratulations on 16 sober days and a good night's sleep!!!!!
Have you heard of HALT?
Hungry
Angry
Lonely
Tired
These situations/feelings tend to be common triggers for many of us.
It's great to recognize them and have a plan in place for a healthy response to each.

I am better now and feel so relieved each new day.
