Never happened until my mid 30s but alcohol makes my face blow up.
And good morning JoJo!

Good morning.
Another stellar sleep. Feels soooo good to sleep. When i was drinking sleep was really disjointed. The science of good sleep is so important. Day 9. I hope my body is repairing itself. I can only imagine what 90 days feels like if Day 9 feels this good. Clear head.

I do have lots of experience with watching sport and alcohol though.
I thought that was going to be very challenging, but it turned out to be awesome.
I am a big Aussie Rules Football fan, and I love it twice as much now that I am sober.
I can actually follow the games and remember them....

Hey all. I've been quietly lurking since the class opened and finally joining up. I'm at day 5. I've been in other classes (briefly) and have been in "trying to quit" mode for 5 years. My habit has been mostly secret so the shame is killing me. Here to be honest and accountable and to share in peer support.

I tried to look up AA meetings online but I couldnt get the Zoom feed going. I have never been to an AA meeting before. I like the idea of checking out one online. Just need to figure out the link zoom stuff.

Day 3- Feeling good! So far haven’t had any negative physical symptoms. Had a couple of strong but brief cravings and a bit of irritability (but that could have been circumstances irritating me too).
Erratic-hope you are getting through the witching hour. It will be worth it!
Warm lemon water and the green tea face mask sound awesome! I’m going to try to do the warm lemon water today and order some nice face masks.
Not much of a gamer but I have enjoyed some Call of Duty Zombies and found it extremely relaxing in the past. I’m a mom of adult children so I started playing with them when they were younger and kept playing on my own. Fun!
I love reading everyone’s updates and ideas. Have a great day everyone and stay strong!
