Days 8&9
I work 12- hour shifts, so it is basically work\sleep\work\sleep, BUT, I used to stick drinking in there too, and for 9+ days I haven't. Not in denial that the temptations aren't going to come, will try a meeting on Saturday...We can do this, ONE DAYT AT A TIME!

Fort,
You are clean now. Congrats.
The brain still needs to adjust though. Many months in my case.
It will take time to build sober muscles w activities you do during your awake time sober. I'm at 17 months and I am still mentally healing.
The crave you feel is the brain damage. I crave daily.
Stay sober...a relapse now will bring guilt and shame. Remember how bad it was when you quit. I nearly crashed my car while detoxing. Hypoglycemia attack. It was horrible.
Unlearn your drinking behavior. Sobriety is normal, not a fad.
Thanks for the post.
