Day 6, I'M too old for this shit! Another binge may kill me, I still am not right. Absolutely zero desire to drink.

I fully agree that once you get through this, you don't want to do it I second (or third) time!

But great job on day six. You may not be normal yet, but I'll bet you're better and you were 6 days ago. Sometimes we have to be thankful for small increments of improvement .

The day I quit, I was so sick, I didn't really care if I died! I'M ALOT better than I was. Still lots of room for improvement. I Had it under control for 7 years. Became disabled, had surgery, my brother died, my wife left 3 days after the funeral. I said screw it! I need alcohol. What a huge mistake. I was also in the deepest darkest depression ever in my life. A hell I cannot explain! I think I may have had a nervous breakdown. I was a total train wreck for 3-5 years after. It was a total blurr. Getting sobriety 6 months here, a year there, a month. But have not maintained. I have to make it stick this time, or else!
