How are you doing?

I recommend detox. It’s safe and comfy. I know with myself, the withdrawals were what made it impossible to break my cycle since I k ew what the cure was.

Day 3-5 were the worst for me. Detoxing on your own can be dangerous. In the least call your doctor, but I would recommend going to the ER and telling them you need to detox. Having a safe place where they can curb the pain and monitor you. Congrats on the 2 day, that is awesome.

Just down mood, anxiety, and unmotivated. No cravings, as I know what caused the problem. I need to remember this the next time I think i’m cured again and can have just a few.

Ahhh… the “I am cured” lie that demon tells us. I would still call the doctor. Let them know what’s going on. It may just help to get it out there and have a medical professional tell you it will be ok. Good luck my man

Well if you can do 2 days you can do 2 more. Once you get another 2 down just go for another 2 and on and on it goes!

One day at a time. I am proud of you. Also a binge drinker here sadly.

Update. Through the worst part of mild withdrawal. While they call it mild because the symptoms aren’t life threatening, they still suck.

I get it brother, I’m a week sober and finally feeling OK. I’m the type that can go long stretches without drinking and it’s not as rough as some may experience but when I start, well….. the last 2 were prob a 7 day blackout and most recently lost my dream job after just 2 days. Hang in there man, it gets better
