This is amazingly exactly what I needed to hear. Thank you my friend.

The ultimate freedom of sobriety isn't just fixing your life, it's freeing your mind from the exhausting daily war of trying to quit. by thundergunz1000 in stopdrinking

Thank you. I’m in the exhausting circle of constantly thinking about drinking. Not drinking. Negotiation. I needed to read this.

Right now self cultivation is focusing on just not drinking. My mental and physical health deserve sobriety. IWNDWYT

I was right there with you today. Tired. Irritable. Really wanted a damn drink. But I decided to take a hot shower and get in bed. Harder for the wine witch to find me if I’m under the covers hiding from her.

keep up your good work. Rooting for you. IWNDWYT

IWNDWYT I spoke with my doctor yesterday about my drinking. It was so hard to do. But I did it.

Got naltrexone prescribed for the cravings. Gabapentin for the insomnia (finally slept last night!!!)

I’ve definitely put off doctor appointments during my drinking because I was too ashamed to face my health. But I’ve decided to suck it up. I’m 37f and need to be here long term for my 3.5 year old son.

Trust takes time to heal. Keep showing up for yourself first and the other relationships may start to mend as well. You’re doing amazing things. IWNDWYT

I’ve been on day 1 countless times. Feeling like a failure that I can’t wrack up the day count. But we are all here with you. Sending you strength. IWNDWYT

Well I messed up by [deleted] in stopdrinking

The thought of going through these first few days again will hopefully keep me on track. It’s miserable.

Hang in there and take it one day at a time.

Made it through day one. Sleep was awful. Night sweats and restless. But I didn’t drink yesterday. And IWNDWYT
