I hit one week sober today from alcohol today after consuming 750ml of vodka almost daily/every other day. People in my personal life don’t know the extent of how bad my drinking has gotten over the years so I don’t have anyone to share my tiny milestone with so I figured I’d say something here

I’m starting today. And exactly like you said a pint of vodka every day ! I have hidden it well so nobody knows so I am worried about starting alone, also worried about maybe deleres tremens

Welcome to Talking Sober - where we get it. A single day sober for an alcoholic is at least a minor miracle, no matter if it is day 1 or day 1000. I’m so glad you made it to a week, through a weekend. Treat yourself to a favorite dessert or whatever else you usually deny yourself, except not you-know-what!
Blessings 
on your house as you tread your sober path.

The DTs are a possibility. My detox was miserable, but worth it.
Drink a lot of water before withdrawels hit. It will help. Drink as much water as you can.

Well I will say it was very hard my first day, shoot my first week. But im in a treatment program, so that made it a little bit easier. I just have to keep reminding myself why im getting clean and thats because im tired of being tired. I want something more for myself.
