Day 2 went really well
I had a low-key, non stressful day at work.
No arguments with anyone, I don't think anyone yelled at me the entire day, and I generally felt okay. I am hopeful this is a sign that things WILL get better soon. I will know more after I go to my dr. appt. in the morning.
The mornings are still hard because I have low energy, and the nights I still can't sleep well, which I'm sure is the reason I don't feel refreshed and motivated in the mornings. I have noticed some patterns like this that give me a better understand of why I drank. I know the longer I stay sober, the better I will be able to rest and have more energy, instead of depending on alcohol to "fuel" me. I'm studying in my recovery book and posting here each night to keep me on the right path.

I'm only just starting day 9 here in the UK Bronzie and my body is already adjusting and feeling mouth more energetic.
2 days won't feel a lot at the moment but it is such an ahievement when carrying on drinking is the easier thing to do. Fantastic job. Keep it up because you're worth it.

Thank you both, and I realize this may really be the calm before the storm. Usually after a few days, I get strong cravings and AV, which never really goes away, but gets worse the longer I go without. I'm just so thankful I get to see my doctor tmrw morning, then spend the rest of the day at work, and then I have you all here in the evenings for support. I will keep checking in and posting. Thanks again!
