Withdrawal is a bitch. I hadn't slipped for very long, but escalated rapidly.
Now I'm at the "Oh, yeah, THIS part," blech part. Headaches that aren't hangovers but your brain simply hurting. I drink a lot of clear decaf tea, water. Serious sugar cravings, so I am trying to eat fruit. Carbs don't seem to be an issue yet.
And I sleep. Weird dreams, perpetually tired. I can see the direct correlation to depression, what a surprise.I hate addiction. I think I would slap anyone who would refer to alcoholism as anything but a disease. How on earth has my liver survived? But it's the brain, the brain that changed and did it for good.
I am terribly sorry for acting out here in the depths of my self induced misery, as sincere as it has been. One problem at a time.
