Good morning everyone! Today is day 7 without alcohol

Good morning everyone! Today is day 7 without alcohol or sleep aids, both Rx and over the counter. I actually feel great, rested and human after a night of crazy REM dreams, it is weird but feels amazing. I am here today to help bouy anybody that needs it! What broke the cycle last week (I hope forever) was drinking two bottles of bourbon by myself, puking all the next day with a stomach on fire for a week, taking pills to help sleep but instead experiencing terrifying hallucinations at night and anxious thoughts. I rode it out and finally slept like a baby unaided, now on day 7. IT CAN BE DONE! I see light at the end of the tunnel! Has anyone else experienced this kind of ride?? I am encouraged to stay on this side of the light!! Please share!
