@Paul697 Yes I’m hanging in there. Today was the first day that I didn’t have anxiety or any withdrawal symptoms so that feels really good. Day 4. How are you doing?

I’m doing great. Wife stayed up late working so temptation low.
By this time tomorrow I’ll be too tired to care.
Big next test for me is Thursday night. That will be huge.

Breeze day here too.
Here’s the part when I can’t get complacent. This is a 12+ round fight and I haven’t won it all, I just won round 1.
Alcohol is sitting on a stool spitting beer into a bucket while his coach tells him how to adjust for round 2.
But I’m happy with winning round 1 and I’m ready to start swinging whenever the bell for round 2 dings.
Burgess Meredith is talking me up in my head.

Also I hope I didn’t completely date myself by my Burgess Meredith reference.

Does anyone take Gabapentin? My Doctor prescribed it for me but I’m scared to take it

I took during early recovery. Do as your doctor says as I’m not a doctor but I found it beneficial

herbal teas, exercise, cbd oil and meditation. I still freak out now and again but not on a daily basis like before and if I feel it coming it’s OK bc we are only human so nothing to panic about. Deep breaths.
