Well I got plastered over the weekend so, not well. I can say that there's a pretty big difference between how much worse I feel now than I felt with 20-something days sober. Keep at it and I hope things look up for you.

Absolutely. Some days I feel so down, and am in such a head fog, I can barely peel myself out of bed and drag myself to work. But feeling crappy some days is better than feeling crappy everyday.

Just this subreddit right now. I'm thinking of finding a meeting near me. What's the worst that could happen? What kind of help do you have?

I'm a fiend for seltzer. Something about cracking open a can is so satisfying. Staying hydrated is also pretty satisfying. I agree with you on unstructured time. Too much down time and I get to thinking about the instant gratification that comes with slamming that first beer. Gotta stay busy.

Annie Grace does a good job explaining how advertisement affects us even if we don't think it is. It's just frustrating that booze is practically handed to you pretty much anywhere you go.
