I can definitely see where getting a good night’s sleep could be a problem. I’m so accustomed to a nightcap before bed. Without it, it’s taking forever to fall asleep, but once I get there, I’m good. I’m glad you are feeling better overall, though. I might try reading before bed. Are you trying anything to help with your sleeping?

I don’t know how I’m supposed to feel, but I’m a bit more fidgety, still feeling very shameful and just off, not myself (or maybe this is my true self, crazy as orange cats on a hot roof). I’ve been thinking thoughts like if I’m feeling so bad without the alcohol, what’s one glass of wine going to hurt to calm my nerves? But I can’t moderate so I have to quit. One always leads to many more. I feel pathetic actually. Even feeling pathetic, I also feel hopeful that it won’t always feel like this. So I’m ok really.. just pushing through.
