Sick
Got sick after 6 weeks of abstinence from alcohol. Funny, the first time in about a year that I succumbed to flu and colds. Seemed that I easily got stressed and tired without the occasional tipple or that weekly binge. Anyone share this experience?

Yah I got “real” sick too during the first few months. Before I was usually only ever “hangover” sick. Same happened to other people in my outpatient group. Since then I’m feeling super healthy and don’t really get sick. If I’ve got a cold it was short lived. Quitting smoking has probably helped too. Anyway, I wouldn’t worry about it and keep on the wagon. Good work on 6 weeks!

I'm sorry you're sick - I think it's common in the early days ...but at 6 months mebbe you're probably just one of many who caught a bug?
If it seemed like I never got sick when I was drinking it was because I drank through my illnesses.
I can only remember one or two times when I was too sick to drink,. but I'm sure I was sick a lot more times than that.
