Hi and welcome . Yes it’s normal I’m on day 17 and had bad headaches and body aches for ages. But it’s just your body detoxing and adjusting to no alcohol. Stick with it and use this site a lot for suppprt and ask anything no judgement. Good luck !

Mine were pretty bad the first 3 weeks. @Yoda-Stevie recommended daily turmeric curcumin. Right when I started taking them they went away and haven’t had any since. This and controlling my daily caffeine intake helped too.

Thanks, I appreciate it. I will try it. I have been drinking a lot of soda. So you mean not too much caffeine I imagine?

They are normal especially when you’re sleeping is disturbed too, however if you reduce your caffeine intake straight away your headache is likely to continue as caffeine withdrawal also causes headaches. If you want to reduce your caffeine too then I’m not going to tell you not to, keep yourself rehydrated with plenty of water and invest in a good multivitamins too

Have them too. It’s detoxing I guess.
Drink a lot, take a vitamine B complex and extra magnesium. It might help.

I can only speak for booze(that was my thing) but yes, it is normal/Hell.
Take Advil, eat food, drink a lot of water, and hold strong.

Just keep it consistent however much caffeine you drink if you think you’re sensitive to it like I am. If you usually drink two cups of coffee or soda/day, keep it at that. No more, no less.
