Discovered this Site Yesterday and I'm Glad
Today is my 2nd day on the Daily Strength and I plan on logging on every day to find support from others here. It's my 3rd day sober. The last 2 days have been a little difficult because I'm dealing with withdrawal symptoms, mainly headaches I never had before. They're minor though and I'm taking some aspirin to counter it. My goal is to get to 7 days of sobriety and hopefully after that my energy level will be up and the headaches will be gone. I'm excited to be on this journey to completely rid my system and my life of any alcohol. I'd like to have a clearer mind and a healthier body so that I can enjoy time with my family and friends, and so that I can really LiVE my days to the fullest rather than just existing.

Welcome radicro!! I\'m in my first week as well (Day 6), so I know how it feels but it does get better everyday. I have had to fight the temptation to run to the store. I am working from home this week, so it would be really easy to do that but so far, so good on not breaking down. Good luck on your journey!!
Thanks Soberlife62. I\'m still trying to figure out what my triggers are. I have usually enjoyed drinking beer by myself. In a way, I\'m glad I don\'t have any friends who want to come over to drink with me all the time. That would make it very difficult. Today is the start of Day 4.
