This is my first day of being sober. I would drink everyday and throw up the morning after. I would get drunk on my lunch breaks and go back to work. I almost lost my job last week. I have a dui and still drunk drive. The pandemic is the reason I drink so much and now crave it every moment. I really am in need of help.

If you drink every day you may need in patient treatment. Please call your doctor or someone with withdrawal experience. It could be bad. Prayers sent for strength and courage.

My thoughts and prayers are with you. Please seek medical help if you need, go to an AA meeting or at least get a copy of the big book and read it

Thank you for your thoughts and prayers. I’m just proud of myself for starting my day 1. I’m being extremely positive and kind to myself. Nothing bad has happened and I’m using that as a chance to continue with my sobriety.

You should be proud of yourself
Thank you. I was having panic attacks and freaking out this morning. Lots of crying but still sober. So today is still a win in my book.

Good for you! I know how you’re feeling . I was so bad, I’d wake up at 3 am and have to have a drink. Kept a bottle by my bedside!
At this point, I highly suggest you seek medical help. Withdrawal can be brutal and should not be taken lightly. Find a rehab, and AA will help!
Prayers and thoughts are with you

That’s great! Nice job.
Definitely consider speaking with a doctor. I was the same way at the peak of my drinking. I ended up checking into a rehab which is extreme for some, but it was the only way I could safely break the cycle. The anxiety I had coming off was debilitating.

Congrats on your day 5! You’re no longer at day 1! Almost at a week, which I thought was the hardest step. Keep it up.
