Day 0 - But I am here for the weekend
Day 0 - But I am here for the weekend
I am not drinking or anything now. I had 2 beers before work early this morning to get thru the headache/hangover of drinking last night. Just enough to get a buzz of energy, but by lunchtime I was feeling bad. I threw up after lunch and then had some yogurt and water and started feeling better. I'm so tired of going thru this toxic cycle. I'm done!
I worked a very long day, but I'm home enjoying my evening now and resting and 100% sober, it feels great! I'm here for a sober weekend. And if I get the urge to drink again, I will post here FIRST instead of afterwards when I'm feeling like crap. Also got my new book in the mail today....The Red Road to Wellbriety. I'm excited to start reading it and doing the work!

Bron,
That is what we do....make a sober life.
When I was a drunk, I would be half way through a bottle of something or worse by now.
I would feel gully knowing when I pass out, I would not be able to be woken up, even if I was set on fire.
Instead, I worked out, went food shopping, cooked dinner w my 13 yo, burned a bunch of receipts, and now getting ready to brush my teeth and roll into bed.
I will wake up in the morning feeling right for making it another day proudly sober. I thank God constantly.
Keep asking questions. Getting clean, depending on many variables, may be the hardest thing you will ever do. It was for me.
Thanks.

WELCOME BRON. Honest, proactive and doing different stuff, so awesomely good. Please be careful with w-drawls. Especially the chucking- dehydration. See a doc if you are really crook.

Thank you all. 11:30am on Saturday morning, and so far I woke at 9am, made breakfast for my daughter and I, washed some dishes, started laundry and did some picking up around the house. Now back in bed and we are watching a movie. I'm not gonna overdo it after having a rough week. Good news though, no more feeling or getting sick! Sober last night and today I feel great, other than some mild cravings. Thanks everyone for all the support and kind words!

In my experience...the cravings will get easier to deal with and the energy levels increase. I do so much more now and it barely phases me.
Thanks.
