Intense panic

Just had a pretty intense panic attack. Felt like I was choking. Thankfully it only lasted a few minutes. 17 days sober. Alcohol has poisoned my brain faaak!

Over two weeks, you’re crushing it, brother! I had a lot of panic attacks when I first got sober and took anti anxiety meds for a while. Gym, meditating, and replacing drinking with healthy activities helped me a lot. I realized removing drinking left a hole that caused the anxiety. Sober activities were weird for a bit, but the more I did it, the more normal it became. Now a healthy life with no alcohol or meds is the new normal and it’s such a better life. Here if you need to talk about any of it. You got this!

That had to be scary. Panic attacks are the worse. You made it through without picking up, and 17 days sober still stands. Proud of you
