Oh thank you so much! I’m proud of you, that’s awesome!
My partner and I drank together, and are quitting together. MOSTLY quitting—we still have some drinks on Fridays and Saturdays at this point, but nothing like we used to. Sleep is slowly getting better on weekdays! Waking up DOES feel suuuper weird!
I used to wake up and feel okay until around 1-2PM, then the hangover would hit me. Maybe I was waking up still kinda drunk. Now on weekdays, around midday when I’d usually start feeling shitty, I just.. keep… feeling good? What a strange feeling!
The biggest thing for me is driving. I only ever drank in the evenings, and never drove after I had a drop. When I was drinking heavily every night though, driving during the day would give me horrible anxiety and I had a panic attack twice on the highway. Now I can drive like a normal person and I feel normal doing it! MAGIC
