Excellent comment Jason. I think each of our symptoms are going to be different to certain degrees. I think that just wanting a drink is the hardest for me. I do not have headaches, stomach problems but my sleep is disturbed, but it was when I would go to bed drunk. So maybe that is another problem not related to the drinking or not drinking. As far as thinking about how good that drink would be, I think about how bad I will feel about me the next morning and that keeps me on track. I also have said that I think of the question, what good has drinking every done for you? My answer always comes back, nothing. So why would I want to do something that does absolutely no good for me? In a rational state, I would not. So that said, slips happen, old habits return but can die. That is how I am looking at it this morning of my 5th day of sobriety. Thanks for being there.
