The familiar day 3 rubbish

Vivid dreams of alcohol and witnessing the death of a sibling in a graphic way a sure way to start a day of anxiety. Perhaps better than waking up with that hungover **** my life attitude as drag myself off to work.
riddled with guilt and despair from things that can only be negated by fixing and changing myself to be better. This starts and continues only in a life without alcohol.
I'm a very lucky man to still have what I have for which I am grateful as they are my strength.

I’m on day 3 today, so one day behind you- sorry to hear about the vivid dreams- the brain works in mysterious ways. Its great, though that you’re able to focus on the positives and keep your eyes on the goal!

When I drank, Day 3 was never a time when I would have posted, not that I knew there were places to post something back then. Day 3 was consumed by pulling out my hair by he roots until I finally caved in and started drinking again.

Sorry for your loss. I’m glad you’re staying sober through it and posting here though. Focusing on work & health is a positive thing. I agree that getting past day 3 is a small hurdle and then things start to ease up. It did for me and I hope for you as well.
